Hey guys,
I am 23 years old and I do suffer from health anxiety. I recently developed a lump under my ear. I went to my GP who said its most likely a lymph node and gave me the antibiotic doxycycline to take for five days. I’m on fifth day today and I noticed the lump has reduced a bit but I have got a horrible sore throat which I didn’t have before. I was googling and saw that with this antibiotic doxycycline there is number of side effects one is a rare skin reaction which may start with a sore throat. I’m freaking out. I will go to my GP tom morning. I was looking for some reassurance and I just wanted to ask if anybody has taken antibiotics and developed another infection while on it or had a similar experience or symptoms ? Sorry if I sound crazy. I was doing much better with my health anxiety lately but this all has sent me down a spiral again.
Thank you!
