It's not TENS....

Trying to remember the name of a syndrome, I think. An adverse reaction to abx causing necrosis. Not TENS though. Is TENS called somthing else?
Been a while. I used to be floated to Burn and they never gave me the heavy cases like that anyway.

Toxic epidermal necrolysis. Its an exfloiative dermatitis that looks like 2 degree burns. I think SJS/SSS falls into this family, but I'm not positive.
