Its like the symptoms I would have when I used to worry about tetanus. I seriously think I am going to die and if these are rabies symptoms I'm a goner for sure.. The doctors will not give me the rabies vaccine because they didn't think the marks were a bite, but could they have been wrong? What if I was actually bitten somewhere else and didn't notice and it was such a small wound I couldn't find it?? Do you think they could have lied to me or not bothered looking closely enough just so they could rush me out of there and blame it on anxiety??? The entire right side of my face is starting to go numb. I can't get the documentaries I have watched on human rabies out of my head. I know that the virus can go undetected in your body for a few days all the way up to like 9 years, which means I will be sick with worry for YEARS of my life. My whole face is numb and stiff now and I can barely open my jaw.
