How do I know if I have TSS?
I went on a feild trip so I used a tampon. It was only my 2nd tampon that I've ever used. After about 3 or 4 hours I started to feel a little dizzy. I immediately took out the tampon and just used a pad. The dizziness went away shortly after that. I got home and read the warnings and it said that dizziness is a sign of TSS!
Oh yeah- I know for a fact that the tampon wasn't in completely correctly because I could still kinda feel it. We had just watched a movie so we had been sitting for about an hour. After about 20 mins later is when the dizziness happened.
What are the chances that I have TSS???
Help I'm so worried!!!!
TSS = Toxic Shock Syndrome
I've been using tampons for about 15 years and I've never had that problem. I even left in over night accidently. I'm sure you have nothing to worry about. Your body wasn't toxicly shocked in 4 hours. Maybe you got all freaked out about feeling it there and that's why you felt dizzy.
Good luck!
