Started last Tuesday feeling like crap after work, never saw Wednesday, Thursday start the day feeling better until I noticed a slight rash and swelling in my lefy foot.
As the day proceeds it keeps on moving. After a day of more crap I head to the Dr. and find I have cellulitis on my whole lower left leg.
Foot swells up like a balloon if I don't keep it elevated, making my leg look twice as big.
Got antibiotics, instructions and a follow up appt this Friday.

I only hope that it starts swinging in my favor quickly, as I have next week off and I do not want to be bed ridden (or couch bound) for a week!!!!

I've had that a few times, but never as bad. Once was from a spider bite, it was spreading like crazy. Cipro knocked it out fast.

My uncle had a bad case of it back during the winter. Put him in the hospital for about a week. Pretty nasty stuff.
