A scab, into a rash, into an ameoba in my brain

So I got worried again. Maybe because I forgot to take my medication again. A terrible mistake I need to stop making. But yes I'm worried now. I just was feeling around my nose and felt a scab that I picked off. It was on the corner of my nose. I immediately thought of this lady, in her 60s, I read on a long time ago. She used a neti pot and developed a rash on her nose. That rash ended up being a parasite of sort that practically turned half her brain to mush, and she died soon after. And there have been cases all over of flesh eating diseases. Of arms, legs, and faces, which seem to be more fatal. So naturally I'm scared of this scab because it's so close to the danger triangle. What if something gets in it and starts eating the skin of my nose, I think. What if I ddvelop an infection that I don't catch until it's too late, like that girl from earlier this year and her secret strep infection? I just worry about these kinda of things. And it gets worse if I miss my medication. But I'm trying to ease this fear. Right here and now.

You have to stop reading all these horror stories about other people. Each time you think you have something it seems like you have read a story about somebody else who once did something that brought on something worse that you think you have. Maybe if you didn't read as much, your brain wouldn't be full of these ideas you keep getting. I tend not to read anything medical at all. Thus if I feel any way, I don't have an idea as to what could be wrong based on a story of some man or woman. That is your main problem. Stop doing that and most of what you imagine will simply stop.
