Hi All,
Sorry to post something so awful but I'm not coping and need some support.
I can't go to family as they don't understand.
So I used a Netti Pot about 4 days ago and I think I boiled the water but to be honest I can't remember, I was so busy doing other things, but I used it and then went - 'crap did I boil the kettle?' - so then I googled tap water and Netti Pot- don't ever do that.
Now 4 days in I can't sleep, can't eat, worried I have a brain parasite from the tap water.
I've phoned the Municpal water supply people - and they have said they filter the water and it's chlorinated to kill all parasites, but still hasn't put my mind at ease. My friend is a Dr and she just sent me a picture of the movie 'Alien, with a 'you'll be fine' - message.
I've phoned Nurse line and they have said - well I've never heard of it so I think you'll be fine, but I"M NOT FINE!
I'm freaking out!!!!
I have headaches, which is a symptom, normal incubation is up to 12 days and I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I'M GOING TO COPE!
Today I have a blocked nose, the Dr has put me on antibiotics for what he think s is a low-grade fever but I'm all blocked up and nothing is working, I feel exhausted, I'm tired and all I can think is that I've got a parasite inside my sinus passages due to the tap water.
So ... has anyone actually used tap water in their netti pot?
What do you think the chances are that there are parasites in the water and how do you cope with such high end anxiety.
I"m suffering..... can't cope and falling apart.
Not good.
Thanks guys!
