I've got some odd symptoms What do the SVTP Doctors think?

Not sure how I feel about the exam but the Dr grabbed a 2nd doctor to look at it and they don't know what it is but they are going to treat me for shingles and also give me Doxycycline for if it is an infection. The fact it isn't in a concentrated area is why she said she wasn't sure it was shingles.

Look up Spinal Meningitis. Rule everything out.

I'd be worried if one of them was this guy but if not, you'll be alright.

It was a female Indian Dr and then she brought in another hard ass female Dr to look. She asked if I was okay with the diagnosis and I said as long as it isn't going to affect my head and she replied "well it's an infection of your head" sarcastically. I clarified I meant my brain and spinal cord but she said no, it's just on my skin. Didn't get a great feeling so I'm going to start taking the meds and try to get in with primary care to be seen and go to a specialist if need be.

They gave me 1gm Valacyclovir, 100mg Doxy, and IBprofen to help treat it. My head is killing me having sit here for almost 5hrs.

Sounds like the clap.

Sounds like herpes to me...lol

Seriously it sounds like a bug bite...spider or gasp bedbugs...i had a run with bed bugs once when in was a travel nurse...huge welts and clear drainage...itched like a bastard.

Also...any chest pain, trouble beathing? Like a weight on your chest or dont feel like your lungs are getting full? Any new meds? Any tingling of the lips, mouth or throat?. Any cough? Productivr or otherwise?

Doxy is a rugged anti bio...take or eat some probiotics...its used for lyme...which you may have based on your issues...did they test?

And shingles sucks ass...my wife had it when she was 37 or so...doxy wont help that

I always keep doxy on hand, especially when I was smashing chicks off of tinder and bumble. I took doxy prophylactically just in case, lol it will at least keep some bacterial infections at bay…

They didn't test for shit but told me I need to get to my primary right away. They looked at me for less than 5min and gave me these meds based off not even being sure what it is. Sounds about right for the VA I think.

 

[Blk04L]

Doxy was the only medicine I ever had a side effect to.
Migraine like headaches.

They also thought it could be MRSA but I have no history of it so she backed off that.

Took about 2 weeks of a 30 day supply when we were in Japan. Gave me some weird dreams but I kept the rest just in case since our corpsman did say it could wipe out most STDs lol.

They can do a nose swab for mrsa, guessing the VA didn’t, lol

Gay nurse brought me to the exam room. I don't see a single chick nurse here. Guess that's to be expected for Seattle.

The real question is if he'd PIIHB.

Guess that answers the question if he’d put it in his but.

Resounding yes.

They actually did do a nose swab but tye nurse did that and I heard the Dr say negative for Covid and then went on to suspect MRSA so it sounds like a no. They did a throat swab too. Not sure what that tested for.

Doctors scare the piss out of me. Last time I went in for something serious he asked me what my symptoms were. As I lay there telling him about it I kept hearing key type. So I sit up & look just to see the quack typing in my symptoms into web MD or something like it. I started to take better care of myself after said incident.
