Hey @ArraDreaming
Sorry to hear what is happening. I've just been reading through what is happening.
I hope your head is better from when you hit it on a poll.
Is there any way you can go to a bulk-bill GP or an urgent care clinic?
Is it your tonsils or lymph nodes?

Ah okay @ArraDreaming
Have you spoken with The Nurse on call?
Or can you wait and go to your GP tomorrow? I don't think you'll die tonight. Are you having trouble breathing, or are you short of breath?

You said you are really stressed. That could be why your heart is beating really fast.
Can you either do in for four, hold for four, and out for four a few times?
Or in for four, hold for two and out for six @ArraDreaming

@ArraDreaming I can understand the anxiety, it really is rough. Fear of knowing vs. the fear you feel not knowing.
But because you don't know for sure, I think it's fair to say that there's no need in imagining the worst case scenario. If it is bad, you can tackle that when it comes to it. There's a saying, "He who worries suffers twice." Worrying doesn't solve anything - it is extra suffering that may not be needed. Because it could all be fine - and I think it's more likely that it's something minor. Maybe in half an hour if you're still feeling this way, you can give the nurse on call a try?

I don't think you're going to die @ArraDreaming
If you have a good sleep, you can go to your GP tomorrow.
Call the nurse if your worried.
