I've been freaking out basically all day... crying my eyes out. Day 2 of the second antibiotic for my ear (had phone appt. Sunday with a doctor). The ear still hurts, now my arms are itchy, eyes dry (?) & my lips tingly ( swollen)... so scared. Yes I've been googling.... my husband is out for evening.... I think something really wrong...
So scared...: I've been freaking out... - Anxiety and Depre...
So scared...
I don't really know the context of your situation, but it sounds like you need to go to the emergency room.
I agree with Dave, you should seek medical attention as you might be having a bad reaction to medication prescribed for your ear infection. You could call the ER and just talk to a nurse for reassurance or advice. Hopefully it’s just nerves, but better to be safe. Keep us updated so we know you are okay.
Thank you... I called the advice nurse. She said Sudafed can cause bad anxiety & itching. Said to try to take 2 Benadryl. She also sent an ugerant message to my doctor. To not take either meds until I hear back from my doctor. I barely slept, still itchy & anxious. Still no call yet... Called in sick, pretty sure in big trouble... the other key holder is out this week... but there's no way I can work today. My husband is out sick too, he has sore throat & ? I'm still scared...
Sudafed is an over the counter medicine, and it does cause funny symptoms for me, too. Good that you talked to the doctor. I think the main thing is to just keep taking the antibiotics. (twice a day). Also, check with the pharmacist as to whether you should take them with food or on an empty stomach. One other thing, is that some antibiotics are poorly absorbed if taken with Orange juice, so use water, milk, etc.
