As most of you know I have an infection on the top of my head possibly a tick bite. I also have swollen lymph nodes all down the left side of my neck. I am on a strong antibiotic that is supposed to treat things like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. I started the antibiotic Thursday night and so far my infection is not going away. Right now I am very shaky, the entire side of my neck is swollen and stiff, and I feel like my throat is closing up. My head hurts and I keep taking these deep breaths. I took two .5 Xanax an hour ago along with Advil. It’s not working. Xanax always works. Always. I’m freaking out I have sepsis or some sort of bacteria infection or menigitis and I don’t know what to do. I have my favorite show on. I’m eating dinner. I’m drinking a ton of water. I don’t know if I’m overeacting or what. But my mom said to me “you’ve never experienced anything like this before” and I just honestly don’t know what to do at this point. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
