Cellulitis and MRSA infection, this stuff is bad: Thoughts?

Here are some suggestions that might work for you:
If your assigned doc is part of a group practice, you could call the Practice Manager and explain what is going on, or ask to speak to the Patient Advocate. Explain the issues and ask for a reassignment.
If not a group, contact the insurance company customer support staff for help finding a more appropriate provider.
If neither helps, call the state insurance commissioner for your state and ask to speak to their Ombudsman or support person for vulnerable adults.
Did you ask the doctor why she will not prescribe his meds? Some doctors are very cautious/conservative with new patients, and maybe she wants to do a full evaluation herself?
Please let me know what you learn, I can only imagine how scary this situation must be for both of you.

Hello Sue, I'm getting back to let you know that we found a Neurologist to take over his meds. That's the only good thing besides my son feels much better. But definitely gotta find him another PCP.. AND a Doctor to keep this stuff under control.
They have done know testing out of the ordinary because the ER Is for emergency. Someone needs to get a diagnosis on this. It seems to act different each episode, but thank you so much. Your nice, thank you.
