Bobbi-as far as retesting they should be doing a new culture on her every 3 months so you can check the next one. Sometimes things dont always show up on every culture, especially in kids depending on how they get the culture but especially with PA and MRSA etc they are never normally 'gone' unless you have tried eradicating them early and gotten a bit of luck and then I believe the cultures have to be free for 1 year before you are officially labeled as not having it.

dont know if that helps or is what you are looking for though.
