Suggest Treatment For Cellulitis

I ve been told that I may have cellulitis, I ve been to the emergency room twice and admitted to the hospital on Wednesday and release this evening! The doctors still are not sure if what I have is cellulitis. Here are my symptoms chills all the time, swelling on both legs and feet, my skin is crusty and very dark, and my skin leaks and blisters! I ve had these symptoms for more than a month and with all the blood test, ultrasound, eggs I still have no clear diagnosis. What can be wrong with me that I seem to be getting worse and I just got of the hospital this evening?
