I have been on antiboitics on and off for the past 4 mos and have been getting stph. infections on my legs, I am a germ-a-phob and have excellant Hygiene. Not only is the scarring awful, each infection gets to be huge and causes me great pain and I get flu like symptoms. I have been prescibed bactrim tablets 2 times a day, wash w/hibicleanse and change my towels and bedding EVERYday. I am now with out insurance and I need to know what else I can do, the one I am battling now has drained 6 times of this awful mess and it refills each day. Please give me advice on what to do, I can't keep going to the doctor and hearing him tell me the same thing. I have read that people gp to the hospital for this for a 7 day IV? and something about a low IgA level may be the cause...please help before I go crazy, and this morning i can feel another one forming under my pubic hair.... OMG!

Hello,

I recently made another post about using Qtips in my ears. I know the inside of ears are damaged because sometimes I get a small amount of blood. I feel I have caused an infection and maybe it led to my brain. Its been this way for 6 months now.

My question is this... If i gave myself a brain infection 6 months ago without treatment, could I still be alive? How long can someone live with a brain infection? For the past 2 months ive been having a lot of dizziness and headaches. Is it too late for me? Am i a dead man? How long can I have a brain infection for without it killing me or being too late?

Thanks,
Adam

I ahve been off xanax for almost 4 days now, feel a little more awake and a lil of the pins and needles, but don't want to take it any longer. I would like to take it on an as need basis. I ahve been on xanax for almost 9 months sometimes up to 2 mg everyday. I don't want to talk to the dr. who precribed him cause he only saw me 1 time. I have tried to wean off but that seemed more difficult with more symptons. I woke up 1 morning and decided just to stop. I actually feel more like myself. Just wondering if anyone else has done this w/o weaning and was ok and how long before you felt 100% back to normal, just not so " awake ".

Here's the thing. I went into the dr yesterday because I was concerned about 2 bumps that I have on my head. It kind of feels like they could be in-grown hairs but they are PAINFUL! It feels like they are bruised. It hurts to the point it gives me a headache whenever it is touched. The dr looked at my head and said that I had a skin infection but didn't think it was necessary to test me for MRSA. Instead, she gave me an antibiotic that is to clear up that strain.
After going home and thinking about it, I wonder if I should tested. I do work in a school district and go to numerous buildings.
What should I do, just take the meds and not worry or get a second opinion?
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!!
