The background as briefly as possible !
I have been ill quite a few times over the last year, just silly infections which for whatever reason have gone out of control and I have ended up in hospital. Things like pneumonia , flu, tonsiltis, quinsy. I have been in hospital 5 times in the last 12 months. I went through a phase of being well over the summer and thought it was over but a few weeks ago got quinsy (again) and ended up back in hospital. I had sepsis twice.
Saw my gp yesterday and she basically said that for whatever reason I seem to be really prone to infections ATM and basically if I get so much as a sore throat or a sniffle go straight in and don't wait for it to get better in it's own. Tbh I was hoping not to feel ill again anyway.
This morning I woke up and I feel like my skin is so sore on one side of my body in two areas one across my neck and on one thigh but also not around my ribs. It's just my skin! It feels like I should have a sore or a rash - but I don't.
This evening I feel fevery.
Here is the massive but
I also suffer with anxiety- not particularly health anxiety but with everything i realise I must be thinking more about my health than normal.
I KNOW that the skin thing is probably nothing and the fever thing could well be a feeling of anxiety since my temp is actually ok I think.
I haven't told dh anything because tbh I think he will over react and insist on a gp appointment tomorrow if it's still the same.
Aibu to put this down to anxiety? I have no REAL symptoms of actually being ill just feeling not right. Dh would say I'm unreasonable I know but then he isn't the one who feels like I may as well move in to the hospital.
