cellulitis, pt. 2

[juldea]

The good news: the Lyme results DID come back, and they were negative. Yay for no Lyme disease!

The bad news: I'm on another 10-day round of antibiotics, because the first 7-day round assumedly wasn't powerful enough to kill the infection. Sigh. Note to self: Don't scratch.
