Hello,
I am 20, and I have had anxiety for years. However, this is the worst my health anxiety has been. I currently have a bad tooth, for which I was prescribed antibiotics for at the local ER. During that same day, I was diagnosed by the urgent care center with a sinus infection. That was 6 days ago. Today, I wake up and notice that I have developed petichae on one side of my body. I went back to the ER. The nurse insisted that it looked like a strep rash, so she swabbed my throat and it came back positive. She switched my antibiotics and sent me on my way. Now, I am freaking out, worried that she did not observe me well enough and that the rash is in fact sepsis and I am going to die. I have googled strep rashes, and they look nothing like what I currently have. Please, someone tell me there is a logical reason that this can not be.
Thank you in advance.
