There is a possibility that you have a drug resistant form, however, there is also just a possibility that these were just not the right drugs to help you. Only a doctor can tell you for sure.

Do you still see your doctor?

If you do have a drug resistant form, or you do not continue treatments, they will eventually be forced to isolate you, to prevent its spreading to more of the population, since it is very easy for someone else to catch from you.

Thus, it is vitally important that you continue your medical treatment and just don't give up and wait to die from it.

The length of time for death can vary from person to person, depending on your body's response and immune system.
