I think you probably are fairly special. Most people I know have had some pretty intense infections that could have been fatal, though only two of them would have certainly been fatal. As for myself, I've had a jaw infection that actually got into the bone, meningitis, lyme disease, and walking pneumonia twice. Compared to some of my peers, I actually consider myself pretty healthy.

That being said, I have definitely been prescribed antibiotics a few times that it wasn't necessary.
