Yesterday I ventured out. First in while other than at a supermarket.
I actually went to a clinic (third time at any health org).
My fingers had become infected and I thought I had necrotizing fasciitis aka flesh eating bacteria. The doctor says its nail fungus but I'm constantly watching my right arm -since tues- for any skin erosion its serious and I'm panicking and sh*tting bricks.

I do agree I have extreme paranoia I still may have Necro fas by the way!! !! ! But by mere reality and documentation . I don't.........right?,

I just can't get it through my head.

Based on your avatar I'd say the flesh eating bacteria have already had a feast. :wink:

Sounds like hypochondria; I'm sure the doc is right about it only being nail fungus.

I don't get ur first comment.
I chose one of the only moveable avatars, that looked seemingly happy (laughing). I bearly checked the rest. Also I do plan to change avatars periodically but what does that have to do with Necrotizing fasciitis!

I am a hypochondriac true! But it develops from being overly paranoid so I posted my info to see if anyone else has issues with paranoia etc.

Last week, I nicked my finger on a sharp ceramic thing in the shower, and of course it got infected with shower germs, and I also thought that I got infected with flesh-eating bacteria and was developing necrotizing fasciitis.

Last year, I got 30 mosquito bites one evening, and the bites swelled up huge and red, and I thought that I had necrotizing fasciitis that time too.
