Re: Mrsa Swabs
Hi littlewisher, i did my own as surgicare ask that you have them done 2 weeks before your op to test for mrsa, easy to do its just a swab around each nostril and a separate swab around bikini line, seal them and post them off, nothing to it. You can go to your clinic and they will do it for you if you want.

Re: Mrsa Swabs
I had my swabs taken at my pre op appointment 7 days before my op date. The nurse just takes a swab from the nose, ears and maybe armpit (so I've heard!).
It doesn't hurt at all lovely, just tickles alittle!

Hiya Huni,
I had MRSA swabs last week at my Pre Op check up, It’s basically 4 swabs that look like long ear cleaners. The nurse wet mine and whipped one around my nose, one around the back of my throat, one on my armpit, and one on my groin lol. It tickled loads lol!
