Seven years ago, my family and I lived in Northern California near the Oregon border. We took a weekend trip to visit some friends in Oregon. While there I noticed that I was getting a welt on my skin near my left elbow about the size of a dime. It had a black dot in the center and I thought it might be a spider bite. The welt was raised up about 1/4 of an inch. Concerned that I might have a recluse spider bite or some other terrible bite, I went to the urgent care center near where we were visiting. They looked at it, did a culture and said "you have a staph infection." I found this hard to believe, so when we returned to our home town, I visited my doctor. He did tests and found the same thing, staph infection. I said, okay, I have staph infection. What do you do for it? He said this is a smart bug and is resistant to most antibiotics, but he could prescribe a fairly expensive antibiotic that the staph wasn't resistant to, at least not yet.

I started taking the antibiotic and sure enough, the welt started going away. I was really convinced that this would get the bug. However, when my 30 day supply of pills was gone, the welt started coming back. I returned to the doctor, and he said we have to do another 30 day cycle. So back on the pills I went. It appeared to go away again, but "when the pills were gone, it started coming back."

I said to myself, this is ridiculous. How long will this cycle go on? I had been the owner of a wrist pulsing unit for several years and decided to give it a try since the drugs weren't working. So I started on using the unit for blood electrification about an hour a day, and within a few days the welt went away and never came back. I continued to use the unit for 2 to 3 weeks just to make sure that it was gone. If I ever got an infection like this again, I would start with pulsing on the wrist and forget the drugs.
