F**king Staph!

Well, it's been over 7 months now and still have a persistent lingering Staph infection. I'm really beginning to lose my sanity now since why training and motivation have faded away because of it. Now it hasn't affected my overall health, but it has affected my overall wellbeing. This is because everyday I will get new bumps (kinda like zits) around my eyes that swell my entire upper and lower eyelids up and hurt like hell. I will also get small reddish pustules on my nose, underneath my nose, and around my mouth. Almost like acne, but alot worse. The shit just won't stop and I am beginning to lose my f**king mind! I have been put on several different antibiotics (oral and topical) that only seemed to make it worse and since it's not affecting my overall health my doctor and dermatologist don't think it's a big enough issue to do blood and skin testing or cultures and possibly run IV's to clear it. The last past month I have been crushing cleansing herbs and herbs to boost my immune system because I thought that it might be suppressed from on and off steroid use over the past several years, but so far nothing from those either. I guess I'm going to have to go to a different doctor or check myself into the hospital when I have a bad flare up to be taken seriously and get this shit taken care of. If not it looks like I'm going to have this shit for the rest of my god damn life! A walking lepyr. Oh well, just thought I'd vent. By the way (PLEASE USE SAFE AND STERILE INJECTION TECHNIQUES BECAUSE THIS BACTERIA LURKS ON THE SURFACE OF EVERONE'S SKIN NOW AND THEN. IT ONLY TAKES A SMALL AMOUNT TO BE PUSHED THROUGH THE SKIN AND INTO YOUR BODY WHERE IT CAN BEGIN TO WREAK HAVOC AND YOUR SKIN, IN YOUR ORGANS, AND EVEN IN YOUR BONES!)
 
Damn bro...this is still going on?!?! What are the docs saying about this? There has to be something they can give you.
 
Sorry to hear that Bro. definitely time for another Doc. staph sucks had it in the army and it took 8 months to clear up. my Prayers go out to you.
 
Sucks man, sorry to hear. I advise the same see a different doctor, their reluctance to do further treatment after this long is unacceptable. You'll be fine bro.
 
Yup, my doctor and I had a chat about this the last time I got my b-12 script. Got to be super careful with the inj. procedure.

I hope everything gets cleared up for you soon bro, it sounds terrible.
 
had a buddy of mine that battles a staph infection and it was a bitch. You will get better stay strong bro.,
 
boy that sounds terrible. i had no idea a staph infection would cause so much damage other than a localized area. did you treat the infection initially when you started noticing symptoms?
 
Thanks for the concerns and replies guys. I greatly appreciate the support. Actually woke up this morning to another round under my nose and my left upper and lower eyelid had so many little bumps around it that my whole eye had swelled up pretty damn bad. I was like "enough of this shit" so me and the fiance strolled on down to the local hospital ER so it could get examined when they were at there worst. Well, still no samples or biopsy's were taken and the doc said that he thinks it may be some type of viral infection and not a bacterial infection. Said that it might just be something that will come an go throughout my life and that they might not ever be able to lay a finger on the exact cause (bacteria, viral, immune system disorder, stress, etc). I don't know, I still think it's a staph infection personally, but who knows. I also believe I need some type of heavy duty IV antibiotic therapy but the doc told me he didn't believe that it would help. Put me on a Herpes Simplex anti-viral like Valtrex and a pack of Prednisone (corticosteroids). Keep your fingers crossed for me guys, and again thanks to you all!

Good luck bor! Keep us informed. :)
 
I do know that staph can turn into gang green when left unchecked so if you had it for a long period of time you would know it for sure. The ER doc may not be that far off when he said it was a viral infection. You have to remember most ER and general practice docs are not specialist and just have a general knowledge of all problems. You may want to seek out a specialis. I know I would.

What gear were you using? UG Lab? If so, which one?


I doubt it matters...it was probably just a screw up in injection procedure. Staph is commonly found on the skin, so that's probably where it came from...not the bottle.

This is why you shouldn't re-use pins.

True but dirty gear is another cause for Staph infections so if he was injecting bathtub gear like Proline that could be the culprit.
 
Again, thanks for the concern guys! JA - actually at the time I began cycle with A-50 tabs, QV Test Enan, QV EQ, and Somaject GH. At approx half way thru switched over to QV Test Prop, homebrewed Fina, Winstrol tabs, and Somaject GH. At first I truly believed what I had going on was caused from the Fina that was homebrewed, but I had never had any problems with Fina ever that I had made in the last 3-4 years. Also, only used half of my entire bottle and gave the other half to a buddy of mine who had no problems with it. Then I thought well maybe I had some dirty QV shit, but now like what Bulldog mentioned I believe if that is what's going on that is was just bacteria on the surface of my skin that was pushed through the skin into my body via injection of some sort. I started a short cycle a few months ago with only human grade injectables when I thought I finally was clearing up and the symptoms came back worse within a few weeks. Needless to say I ended my cycle just to return on antibiotics and herbs with no recourse. This has kind of led me to my final decision to cease with all AAS and ancilliaries permanently from now on whether the problem I have is due to them or not. Just don't want to risk any more possible health problems. Never thought I would be able to say "all natural". But, other than that I've taken a day of Prednisone and Valtrex and actually have had quite a bit of healing and pain relief so maybe there will be light at the end of the tunnel? Again, keep your fingers crossed. Thanks!
 
I used to be a tuna fisherman and contracted Staph from the ship I was on. I had it for about 6 months and the docs just gave me some scripps that didnt do shit. Mean while Im getting these large bumps all over my body that really hurt. Finally it got into my bone marrow and had to be hospitalized for 9 days. I almost lost my arm to this crap, they didnt even know what to give me to cure it. Finally and but load of IV's later and surgery I was clean. I know what your going through is painfull, keep your head up bro. Good luck to ya.
 
Geez. I'm thinking twice of reusing syringes. I never use the same pin twice, but use the same syringe several times and just put new pin on. Use those alcohol prep pads like a mother too. Wipe the vial, area to be injected, even fresh pins out of package and even wipe area injected after injection.

are you serious!?!? spend the extra 8 cents for a new syringe! they are cheap and easy to get online and delivered to your house. getpinz.com orders come with two or three days.

Not sure if you meant that you run the new pin with alcohol swabs before injecting...if so, DON'T! Major no-no.
 
It sounds like the doctors you have seen are enjoying a lot of speculation, but nobody is willing to do tests. Shop around for a doctor who is willing to act, they are there to serve you. Like the saying goes, one test is worth 1000 expert opinions.
 
Is there not some kind of test to tell what kind of infection it is? If I were you I would start doing some research and figure out what kind of test you need. Then go back to your doc and tell him you want these specific test done. I have found over the years that if you contract something that most docs are not that familuar with, its best to do your own research and learn as much as you can about it. That way you and your doc can talk on a more even playing field.
 
I am not sure if you guys are using the same needle to draw the oil as you are using to inject, but I would invest in some 1.5" 20 guage needles for drawing purposes. This way the needle that is used for inject stays sterile and covered until seconds before penetration. You can never be too careful when it comes to safety. Also, the additional 6-10 bucks you spend on a pack of drawing needles is money well spent when you consider all the money you may spend in medical bills.

To Froto also. Definitely I agree totally. I have even told them what I thought it was and my main doc and dermatologist both agreed that that's what they thought it might be. Now the ER doc at the hospital thought something totally different. Talked to my fiances dermatologist today and she wasn't sure either but also seemed to think it might be some kind of herpetitic simplex virus? This sounds plausible since I have suffered from terrible mouth sores and ulcerations since the time I was 5 years old after having the chicken pox so who knows? I have done so much research on my own part and really can't find one thing that is exactly like what I have going on. Havn't even seen any Staph photos or Herpes Simplex photos that look like what I've been getting. I also have requested tests from the doctors including Blood tests, urine tests, skin biopsys, and cultures of active lesions but nobody seems to want to do anything of that nature. The doc in the ER said that the sores were not big enough and open enough to do a culture on which I think is bullshit considering even if they weren't he could at least delicately slice a small amount of infected skin off. He also mentioned that if it was viral than nothing would really even show up with the culture and we'd be back to square one. I said ,"well at least we would then know for sure that it isn't a bacterial infection then wouldn't we?". But still no tests have been done. I am going to keep taking digital pictures of the condition if it keeps persisting to show my fiances dermatologist who said she will see me and culture me if the condition does persist and gets worse. I will keep all you guys posted. Again thank you all for your concern and suggestions!
 
Still no resolve. The prednisone helped while on, but as soon as I got off they came right back and even worse again. The Famvir for herpes simplex didn't do shit. Personally, don't think it has anything to do with herpes. I'm still leaning towards staph, but who knows. I have another appointment with a different university dermatologist tomorrow so wish me luck guys. I'm going to demand some kind of testing to be done this time, I ain't trying to here what they think it might be anymore. I'll keep ya'll posted.
