A biopsy was taken from an inflamed, itchy area in the center of my chest in 2/08. The results, as told to me by my doctor, were that I had an infected spider bite. Since then I have had a recurring severe itch with a pimple that spread in the upper crotch area of my buttocks. Also, there was a redness on my upper part of my left hand and I was prescrbed antibiotics.

Since 2/07 I have had 14 MRSA outbreaks on my legs, chest and buttocks; along with MONTHLY outbreaks in both ear canals. Each occourance leaves a tale-tell purpilish scar in its' wake. I have taken all precautions and every antibiotic imaginable prescribed by some of the best ID specialists in the area but sadly, nothing seems to work.It seems to have found a suitable host and will not go away. So I just live with it. The ear infections are by far the most painful. The canals emit an oily fluid marking the onset of a new outbreak and itch terribly.The pain increases as the eruptions begins, lasting for 4-5 days before lesion lances itself and the sore begins to heal.The pain at that time will feel like a hot needle and last for a day or so. This has nearly driven me to the point of suicide; it is simply unbearable at times.
