Bicillin (Injectible penicillin G) is seldom used nowadays (except for syphilis) since oral antibiotics can usually be given instead. In any case, your symptoms do not sound like any sort of bacterial infection that could be treated with Bicillin. The symptoms are more likely to be a rheumatological or autoimmune disorder.
