toxic shock syndrome results from having your tampon in too long, so it's probably not TSS. also, if you feel fine now, then you don't have TSS. TSS can be fatal, and recovering that quickly from your symptoms is a sign that you didn't have a fatal illness. Also if it were TSS, it would last after you took the tampon out.

I don't know. You should see your doctor for a full diagnosis.

maybe. or it could have just been your period.
