I am currently taking vancomycin intravenously due to an MRSA infection. It's good that your pediatrician was cautious - it is, indeed, a dangerous and sometimes fatal infection. The times (yes...more than once) I have had it, I never exhibited any external symptoms, but I have gotten so violently ill so quickly that I can't imagine anyone letting it go untreated long enough for it to progress enough to affect the heart, bones or other organs.
