So a month ago I went for routine blood tests and my echtophiliis Bacteria was high it was the only thing that was high, so the doctor thought I had an infection but because my white blood cells weren't elevated so he didn't give me antibiotics. Well a week ago I woke up one morning and I coughed up some yellow stuff that was like a gummy consistency. Today, I took my time to get out of bed because I had a headache so I got out of bed at 9am. I blower my nose there was blood, I also coughed and there was still yellow stuff coming from my throat and now I have diarrhoea too. It just sucks because blood tests aren't always sensitive enough to be accurate so I could have had higher white blood cells then what was shown on the test but nope because it wasn't high, I couldnt get on antibiotics straight away, now I fear that I'm contagious and feel worried because I drank out of my dad's water bottle and then my two year old niece drank. I just didn't warn my dad of my infection. So now I fear I got everyone sick, meanwhile I have Tafe tomorrow and the doctors in my area are no longer bulk billed so I'm not sure what to do. I'm in Australia, and yeah it just sucks.

Yeah, I mean went to another doctor and he looked through all my results and it seems that the doctor I usually go have forgotten to tell me I have low vitamin D. So, I told this doctor about all my symptoms I mean it originally the stuff pointed at a parasite but he reviewed those tests and that was negative, so he's asked me to do further testing for my thyroid, cpr test, B12. I now have vitamin D tablets I bought those yesterday
