Suggest Treatment For Necrotizing Fasciitis

Please help with this never ending necrotizing facitiis which took almost one whole leg in under 24 hours and confined in a hospital bed for over six months complete with five surgeries and two would vacs with four hoses running nonstop. The facitiis gave me a pulmonary embolism and shut down my kidneys and live forcing the docs to insert as pig tail and administer dialysis every third day approximately until they were working to a level to keep me a alive. Then the fun started, it took me over two months to learn how to sit and then stand with a back belt brace held by a PT pulling forward a PT heavy hitter behind me in case I went back and then two PT on either side of the rails as I attempted to stand - how do I get through this? I have no money so I can t give you what you are asking but so desperately need answers on this disease that destroyed life as I knew it.

if it was necrotising fasciitis, you are lucky to be alive as it is a devastating infection. the treatment is high dose penicillin containing antibiotic and debridement of necrosis tissue . there should be good control of sugars to accelerate healing.
