eye still swollen

[SakuraFett]

Ok it's day 3 and my eye is still swollen so I'm going to go to the hospital if it's not any better in a few hours. I'm really super scared, of course I read a bunch of scary things online about what can happen with cellulitis if the antibiotics don't work so I don't know if I can handle this. These past few days have been absolute hell for me. I wake up every couple of hours and when I finally wake up for good I have horrible morning anxiety complete with nausea. I just want this to get better and I'm so afraid of the hospital because I've never been admitted before and ugh. Any advice or help would be appreciated.

If it's not getting better, my best advice would be to go see an ophthalmologist. It is by your eye correct? If so, they are going to do a lot better treating it than the hospital. :)

Thank you so much for your reply. I made an appt for the opthamologist tomorrow so hopefully they will get this thing figured out. I'm just so scared that it hasn't seemed to have gotten any better. I really just don't want to die from this it's so scary. Idk why someone that is such a hypochondriac would end up getting something so crazy like this.
