Interesting information, please make sure you publish a letter or a case report in one of the medical journals. I have not seen this association, will be interesting to know the symptoms, signs and biochemistry. Medifix
 
Yikes E. I've seen a couple MRSA UTIs (both nosocomial, Foleys). But nobody really sick like pyelo. It's MRSA Central down south, at least where I live. Interesting.
