How do i stop these fearful thoughts?

[Daisybun]

I really need some help in dealing with my thoughts today. After two weeks of agony, being told it was all anxiety related, two negative test results I finally got diagnosed with an infection. However, in that time I have read all about my symptoms and found out much more that I needed to. Now I keep thinking 'what if' the antibiotic don't work? Why wasn't it picked up earlier? I am so focussed on waiting for relief that I keep thinking about it all the time and it's driving me mad. I find I don't even trust the Drs now and that scares me even more as I thought that at least I could find some reassurance there. I am now in a full blown panic and trying to calm down. Any suggestions please?
