Possible Sinus Infection Complecations?
For the past two years, I have been struggling immensely with health problems and it seems like nothings going to get better. Im tired and desperate and I really want someone to help.
One day i went to splashtown and water got up my nose and started burning extremely bad. I knew this was the start of a sinus infection and assumed it was going to go away on its own. it didnt. 2 years later, ive having breathing problems, chronic inflammation issues, new allergies, and possible encephalitis as my head feels so hot and swollen everyday and its hard to think. its affecting my grades and my personality has changed as well. ive lost sensation almost everywhere on my body, its all numb. my eyes, mouth, and vaginal area is constantly dry and im having trouble with memory. its gotton so bad to the point its been affecting ly grades with my 3.7 gpa dropping to a 2.9
im so miserable and i just wish i wzs healthy. doctor after doctor, they all say the anxiety, anxiety, anxiety.
I know i have anxiety, ive had it almost entire life and its frustrating when theyre just like "oh shes fine its just her hormones"
im so tired of it all i just wanna be healthy. i just want to worry about my friends and school instead of whether im dying or not. i lost most of my sense of smell, my hearing is worse, my sight is worse,its hard to think and because mostcif my sense are now numbed out i have a hard time being self aware. Sometimed ill just space out wherever i am and not realize whats going on. I almost embarresed myself in pe once because i stopped in the middle of a pzcer test and stood there with a blank face. i didnt even realize whzt wzs happening. its so hard going up the stairs, or running for even a little bit because my legs burn or shake really bad and my asthma starts to
Sorry for the rambling, but now heres why i think i have a brain infection.
one, the sinus infection. it all makes sense, and after a few weeks of it not going away i started to feel an odd, uncomfortzble sensation in the bzck of my head. again thought it was nothinf until it begins to sprezd over the course of a week until it reaches the front of my brain. i hzd no idea what was happening and i cried in the bathroom holding my head, begging them to take me, but again they brush it off as anxiety.
then, i had my first asthma attack.I was at the track with my dad and stepmom, but i didnt really want to practice that day because my breathing felt funny. i couldnt "feel" my breath. its odd, but thats the best way to describe it. i couldnt tell if i was breathing. i sprinted really hard and my throat starts to clench up so i fall to the floor shaking, trying to breathe. They thought i was faking because i was reluctant to do the excersizes earlier, so again. They ignored me. This honestly took a huge toll on me psychologically and has probably made my condition 100 times worse. Then, i start feeling numbness and tingling everywhere. i get weird chills and jolts every once in a while that ive never had before. its hard to move my face so i cant really make expressiond anymore, so i always get asked if im sad or mad, which is also very frustrating. Now, i have a headache everyday, from when i wake up until i go to bed. every single day. somz days i get tingles that sort of numb it for a little, but then goed back to feeling weird and hot. If anyone knows whats going on, i would really appreciate it.
