Hello, Doctor Hook. As per your suggestion, I have sought treatment for the anxiety related to my strip club visits. I have decided its in my best interest  to not go anymore. My question for you is in reference to my last episode. I had received a clothed lap dance; my clothes on as well. The stripper placed her head in my neck. I did not feel any pain, hence I've concluded being bitten is most unlikely. The only part I was concerned of was if somehow a mark would be left on my neck. I don't even believe she even kissed my neck, I think just her mouth in the near vicinity of my neck  made me nervous. When I got home, my neck looked absolutely fine. No evidence if any skin broken. I did have a pimple the next day. I digress, my questions: 1) 2 weeks after my episode I felt some sinus pressure, which was last Saturday. I took my temp around eight at night and had a 99.2. I took a warm shower and it shot up to 100.0 in  a mere five minute period. 20 minutes later it was down to 99.4. The next morning I had a 99.1. Later that night, however, i had a 98.8. I felt slightly achy in the late afternoon, but later that night I was fine. The next day, Monday, no temp at all. The Tuesday and Wednesday after i had 98 all day except on once occasion each of those days when i had a 99.0. Thursday thru Saturday I had no temp greater than 98.7. I have not had a sore throat nor have I had swollen glands. I do not have a rash of any sort. I had  white spot on the inside of my cheek which went away in 3 days. I  generally felt well. I drove from NY to North Carolina during this week. My questions- 1) Are these temps ars symptoms?  2) White dot on inside of  mouth that went away- is that a symptom? 3- my tongue in general always has a little white in it-it's not fully pink- so now I've been worrying about thrush. If I had thrush, would I have a sore throat. I realize these questions may sound silly. I didn't engage in vaginal, anal. or oral sex. However, do these symptoms point to peeha

One more thing doctor, upon arriving home, my temps were between  98.0-98.7 yesterday, with one exception. Around 6 in the evening I had a 99.1. It went down however to a 98.6 before bed.

As you probably know, Dr. Hook and I take new questions at random. I'll be answering this one.---

Thanks, Doctor. I was reading my question and could see the absurdity in it. Just to let you know, I went to see a mental health counselor toady who believes I have OCD.  Thanks  for the push. in closing, I would really appreciate it if you could please answer my last question- which falls under the umbrella of anxiety and depression. Here's the question, sir: I have felt no fatigue this past week until after my 5 mile run this afternoon. I often run 5 miles daily, however, this was my first run in the past 12 days. I felt unusually fatigued for hours after my run-somthing I don't often experience. Could the  depression, stress and anxiety which has plagued me so horribly this past week contributed to this. I felt fine before I ran, but so very tired after. I really would appreciate if you could answer this question. Have a good night.

This forum addresses STD and HIV issues only. But I'll say that feeling "unusually fatigued" after a run could indeed reflect your mental status. And whenever someone suspects his or her own symptoms are psychological or emotional, usually s/he is correct.---
