Stephs staph

Alright so Sunday night I started running fever and feeling like crap. Monday I woke up and my skin was hurting very bad and I had red circle-like spots in my inner thigh, legs and a few on my arm. Only on the places that were in pain... I sent pictures to my mom and she told nee to come home so she could "doctor me up"(haha), when Curt and I arrived at my mommas house it was bedtime so as I was getting ready for bed, I got undressed and black dots were covering 87% if my legs from top to feet.

My lower legs usually have thicker (pretty gross looking) skin that's much harder to get off than any other place. But never have I had anything like this. It also spread to my arms, stomach, back and nose on Tuesday.

Today (Wednesday) I woke up to my skin not hurting and the spots mostly faded besides on my legs. I went to the dermatologist this morning and they took
a culture in my skin using a Q-Tip. They also gave me a shot of Rocephin and I got blood taken. Lots of fun today, let me tell ya! My derm. said she thinks its staph, i'm pretty sure I agree with her.

Hopefully the antibiotics and the shot in the  butt does some good! Results should be back in atleast by the beginning if next week. I'll be sure to update! Thanks :)
