so im at my wits end right now and thought id come on this message board to seek some advice. im 25 yrs old and i get strep throat at least 2-3 times a yr. in the past ive done a combination of letting it heal on its own and taking antibiotics. i also suffer severely from OCD and Hypochondria (dont really know if they are related to why i get strep so often but i read somewhere that it was) anyways the ocd and hypochondria have recently spiraled out of control and i find myself obsessing over every possible ailment. i was recently prescribed Zoloft to manage the OCD because on a scale of 1-10 it's reached about a 20 (and thats not an exagerration) but i'm too scared to take it because i read somewhere that it causes hair loss and im hair obsessed. then today i went to the doctor and found out i had strep and they prescribed amoxicillin but then i read today on this message board that someone took it and experienced hair loss. so i guess what im really asking is which way to go with this. do i take the medicine to rid my system of this so i can get on with my daily life or try to take care of it with natural remedies. ive become completely obsessed with not taking meds because in my twisted mind i think im going to have horrible side effecs esp. when it comes to hair. Please serious answers only. I'm aware I have serious issues but it doesnt make it any easier to cope and I could really use some helpful non judgemental advice before i A.) Go crazy from not taking the Zoloft that was prescribed or B.) Make these strep throat symptoms worstStrep throat, ocd, hypochondria?
dude just take the medicine. if you were taking the zoloft like youre supposed to be doing you would realize that the hair loss happens to probably 2% of ppl. at least take the anti biotics. strep sucks. you'll be glad you did..thats all i can tell you. but i highly doubt you'll pay any attention to this at all
