Has anyone here survived flesh eating disease?

Couldn't afford my diabetes meds and contracted FED. Had to have some infected tissues of left leg removed. Would like to talk with someone that has had similar experience

Update:

I guess I should have said I'd like to talk with people who have had FED specifically.

    Although I have not had FED myself, my cousin had it, and he is doing very well now. It was a very long process for him, and oddly enough, it was his left leg as well. He had significant tissue removed and multiple surgeries, but his leg looks normal now, aside from a lengthy scar at the back of his leg. He is doing very well, and I sincerely hope you do as well!
