I think I have to go to Doctor


12 years ago 0 542 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I am going to get ready and go to the urgent care. I am so nervous and panicky I hate going to the doctor, I must really be sick because I feel I should go. The pain in my throat and ear is terrible and now I am wheezing I am also having bad stomach cramps, my monthly is due and it could be nerves. Please pray and wish me luck, I do not want to pass out or freak out when I go, I am afraid to go but afraid not too! Could strep cause pain on just one side? Please wish me luck to to this, I am so scared of what they will find.

The last few days I have been sick. I have very strange symptoms, not so much panic or anxiety, through the symptoms are of course causing that, but I have been very hoarse unable to speak and I have a "lump" in the left side of my throat that just rips with pain when I cough or clear my throat and now I am starting to wheeze with shallow breathing. I think I have to go to urgent care tonight or at the latest tommorow, and as you know me I hate going to the doctor so I must really be sick this time, I just hope nothing serious is wrong that a antibotic can take care of, I feel weak tired and scared I was hoping it would run its course, a lot of people are sick right now I hear, and I know an antibotic is useless against viral, I have been eating very good, walking, lots of juice and water, I must of picked something up and its really scaring me and I have to go to the doctor now which is causing me more panic, my throat should be looked at, I dont think its strep but there is a problem with this pain.

I hope I can do this. I am scared to go and scared not too, the wheezing is scaring me and everytime I cough my that lump just rips with pain! what could this be? is it serious? or just a virus? I am so confused and scared, I did not expect this especially when I was taking such good care of myself and my monthly is due also soon. When I get sick I go down badly.
