Infected bite

Well I’m in 5th week of 1 vanco every other day and one week to go. This has been. 3 1/2 month long journey. Now I think I have an infected bug bite on inner thigh. The redness is spreading and notice a very similar bite on back of same leg. Very very nervous as I’ve had normal bms for a month. Don’t want antibiotic but I am also seeing ID dr tomorrow. Keep fingers crossed for me!

I’ve been on vanco taper pulse for 3 1/2 months. I’m starting 3 week of 1 pill every 3 day. One more week to go after this week. I feel good normal brown formed bm for three weeks. Eating well not losing any more weight . Still have bladder pressure and pain. I am very nervous about getting off the vanco. I know no one is a dr but who thinks I might have a good chance of no recurrence?

I think about this disease all day everyday. I know it’s not good but I live in fear of this coming back never able to eat what I want always having to clean with bleach and not seeing family as the don’t understand and have shunned me. No joy just fear and daily crying. Please be gentle I know I’ve saturated this site but I’m just so lost. On antidepressants and therapist just isn’t helping . Thanks
