View Full Version : Fever - Just Worrying - AGAIN!
I am not having such a great day. I have had a tooth/prior root canal that is infected and am waiting to get the tooth extracted… but I have been feeling hot for the last two weeks (which my doctor said could just be a low grade fever from the infection) anyways, I have been freaking out that it could be something worse and of course my first thought is Cancer. I just went to Walgreen’s to get a thermometer – which was a mistake, because I do have a low grade fever 99. But I can’t stop worrying. Sorry to unload on you – I just am having an “anxious” day.
Why can't I just accept and move on...
*which my doctor said could just be a low grade fever from the infection*
The most likely reason.
Take some Tylenol and reassess a few days after the tooth is dealt with, if you still have the fever then, then you can look into it further .
In absence of any other symptoms , its not a lot to go on to make such a sweeping self diagnosis.
Keep your thoughts rational and take logical steps to help yourself.

Your anxiety is the human representation of the pictures that you paint using your many vivid colours of revolving and reoccurring thoughts.
