Some Relief.

[fenderlove]

The steroids have helped tremendously. The fever/dragon skin caused by the Bactrum/Trimethoprim/Doxycyline has cleared up. The joint pain, the swollen right mastoid, and the feeling of being sunburned all over my body are gone too. However, the original spots of infection on my legs that were originally being treated by those medications are still there. I can't win. I have to go back to the doctor again tomorrow.

I want to thank everyone for their kind comments and well-wishes. I haven't been up to responding individually yet. I've slept most of the day due to the steroids and the benadryl injections I got today.

I'm glad the steroids are helping! Hope the other stuff clears up soon.

That was a pretty dramatic way of finding out what it wasn't you know...
Hopefully they can get it right tomorrow sweetie

Oh, so glad the steroids are helping. That kinda makes me think this may be an auto-immune based condition?

I am glad that at least some of the problems have been fixed. I am holding good thoughts that they finally zap that infection. *hugs you*
