Jerry,
I had no idea you went through this hell.
I can see that, despite the ordeal you're going through, you aim to stay in touch. That's a good sign!
Hopefully, it'll keep your mind off the pains, & focused on more mundane matters.
Occasionally, when we go camping, I hear about somebody contracting E Coli - but never went beyond having to endure a bad case of diarrhea for 2 weeks, and/or take some antibiotics to fend it off.
The bug must have decided to take up residence by your kidneys & set the infection going.... Your case seems to be very rare.

It's been already 3+ years I've been under ACUPUNCTURE TREATMENT for my fibromyalgia.
Prostate problems have been diagnosed from the start - which was a hell of a concern to me because my friend (Horst Puschendorf, the German fellow I visited you with last time) recently underwent surgery for that.
Fortunately, I decided to stay away from regular doctors (they just wanted to give me Valium & steroids, & other garbage... I wanted NONE OF THAT.)
So, I decided to go with ACUPUNCTURE instead (I was a bit familiar with Chinese Medicine from the times I was 19-y-old & hurt my back in the sacro-lumbar area - finally, after going though many quacs, ACUPUNCTURE/Chiropraxis was the solution. After 4 sessions of it, I was brand-new!
At the Chinese Medicine University in Sunnyvale (a branch from the one in China; two towns distance from where I live), a few weeks after starting treatment, I came across Alec Tsai, who was making his final practices over there, to get his California Certification as ACUPUNCTURIST - the fellow knows a lot more than just acupuncture.
He had been a God sent to me.
He took me under his wing - literally.
I put my trust in him. Not only I was treated for the fibromyalgia but for the general wellness of the body, focusing on the joints & other crucial areas. From the start, he told me it would take about 2 years of treatment, to be effective.
Very important: he tackled the prostate problem, inserting deep needles in my abdomen. After 4 sessions of it, I recovered. As simple as that! The fellow knows what he's doing!
NO NEED FOR SURGERY OR ANY OTHER PAINFUL PROCEDURES, NOR TAKING ANY PILLS FOR ETERNITY. So far (knock on wood...), I had no recurrences.
The fibromyalgia is not cured (very few people are lucky enough to kill it) but the main symptoms are drastically diminished. I re-gained a lot of my strength & well-being. I can keep on my heavy travails with beekeeping & other tasks. [I'M A LOT MORE CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT I DO THESE DAYS, WEIGHING BEFORE-HAND HOW I SHOULD TACKLE MY TASKS.] Chronic Fatigue (a constant sideline of fibromyalgia) is still there, giving me plenty of signals when I cross the line & overwork myself.
I thought of sharing this with you.
Keep on pushing & get well.
Best regards to everybody in the family,
Ed. 
You are irreplaceable...
