Answers:
Headache is normal for a period and so is cramps (as you would know), aselll aw hot flushes!. You should check your temperature and if it is higher than normal I would go to the Dr and get it checked because that is your first sign of infection!.!. If it has been a day and your are well enough to be on the computer then I doubt it is TSS, TSS spreads very quickley and you can be dead within 24 hours so if you are feeling ok and dont have a temp I tihnk you are fine maybe just bad period pain xxxWww@Answer-Health@Com

You may be ok, but don't risk it! It can be a very, very, very terrible thing!.

Looking at your past history is not very comforting, I really don't like to use scare tactics, but I hope that you will let this scare you straight, if it turns out that you are ok!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

u might not be go to a doctor 24 hours is way too much and try not to even go the full 8 leave tampons in like 3-6 hours most safest i rly want to tell u not to wry but that would be bad on my part go to the doctor it cant hurt u Www@Answer-Health@Com

check your temperature!. if you have a fever start worrying!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ARE YOU CRAZY!?!

you dont WANT to see how long you can wear a tampon for!. ITS FOUR HOURS MAX! even if you havent used it all the way!. wow!. so use this for further notice!.!.!.!.

but right now, if you are really worried ask your mom or aunt or sister!.
research the symptoms of TSS (its comes in most tampon boxes, info about it) and see if they apply!. and if it gets bad, you NEED TO CALL YOUR DOCTOR or SEE THEM!. because TSS can be fatal!.

act now! and remember what i said!. 4 hours MAX! read those papers that come in the tampon box!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
