Is this dangerous?

I’m considering asking the staff to take me to the ER to see a doc because I’m worried
My cheek hurts and I feel like I have a fever
I get chills and rapid heart rate

Did you change meds recently?

Nope. I’m worried

How high is your fever? Unless it’s really high fever doesn’t mean you need to go to the ER. Call your family dr about it

I wouldn’t worry too much, probably just caught a bug. If it gets worse than maybe go to urgent care or something.

I dunno haven’t measured it yet but don’t u have to go to the ER if you’re on clozapine snd have a fever

Oh, I forgot you were on clozapine. That’s why it’s not good to ask random people on a forum medical questions. Ask staff for a thermometer and see if you have a fever for sure or not. If you do, go to the ER

That part is likely from anxiety.

I’m not anxious currently

You’re asking if how you feel is dangerous. That means you’re nervous about it, which is exactly what anxiety is

Anxiety can manifest in many ways, even if you don’t feel anxious about anything. I’ve had many trips to the ER thinking I was dying but it was just anxiety.

:confused: im just worried you know

Yeah. Being worried in the same thing as being anxious. Have you asked for a thermometer yet?

Not yet I called my mom

How’s your mom supposed to take your temp over the phone?
