You most definitely need to see your doctor.

FYI:  when ever you are prescribed antiobiotics, you MUST take them as directed.  If you dont it can lead to serious complications.

I would most certainly go to your doctor. If you are as terrified as you say then I would go to the doctor before trying to get pregnant. I mean you never know with infections or whatever it is. I mean, I'm pre-med and it just doesn't sound like something you should wait and see on. Exspecially if you are ttc, some sicknesses can mess with your fertility so you never know. It much better to be safe than sorry. I hope you go, let us know if do and what they say. Good luck.
