^ I'm pretty sure she's self-diagnosing herself.

Neslyn: When I got my staff infection, the doc took blood and put me on a generic antibiotic right then. He told me that he was having a blood test done. A week later, he got the results back and put me on a more specific antibiotic to fight the infection.

There's no way they could have known it was a staff infection without a blood test actually, and if you were on antibiotics [and taking them as you should while being sure to take them all as prescribed], then it should have killed it.

It sounds more like you just don't trust anyone to help you, and while researching doctors is all well and good, sometimes you just have to go and hope for the best, if it's something serious. It's also possible that they -did- correctly identify a staff infection, but that you developed something else alongside it.
