See, last night I put in my tampon at about 6:00. I wore it all night long and accidentally fell asleep with it in and wore it until 9:00 this morning. My stomach hurts a little but maybe that's because i got a little drunk last night? I dont know though, I'm scared because i've read so many things about Toxic Shock Syndrome. So what should i do? Thanks!! I rate!

Sp0iLeD_SheDeViL answered Sunday February 13 2005, 7:30 pm: Go see a doctor.TSS is very serious so you need to get it checked out in time.And from now on,never wear a tampon for more than 8 hours!no matter what!
superGiRL21 answered Sunday February 13 2005, 12:49 pm: TSS is extremely rare but leaving a tampon in for more than 8 hours is not a good thing either. I am almost positive that the stomach ache is from period symptoms and may or may not have something to do with the fact that you were drunk last nite. Drink lots of water, i hope you changed the tampon by now but keep an eye out for symptoms: [Toxic shock syndrome from Staphylococcus starts suddenly with vomiting, high fever (temperature at least 102 degrees Fahrenheit, or 38.8 degrees Celsius), a rapid drop in blood pressure (with lightheadedness or fainting), watery diarrhea, headache, sore throat, and muscle aches. Within 24 hours, a sunburn-like rash appears. There also may be bloodshot eyes and an unusual redness under the eyelids or inside the mouth (and vagina in females)] if you have none of these symptoms then i am sure you are fine-but try to be more responsible with tampons :) best of luck i hope your okay!!!

Karen answered Sunday February 13 2005, 11:57 am: Hey, don't worry, you don't have TSS and your stomach only hurts probably from drinking last night. You should wait a little bit more and if it still hurts, then you probably just need to take something to relieve the pain. Don't worry, this is normal and a lot of girls usually do this. Hope I helped :)

feverdancer03 answered Sunday February 13 2005, 11:17 am: It prob isnt tss. It prob is just the drinking. But if you feel like really bad, maybe go tell your mom.....I mean if you had it in for a little longer than you should have like one time, im sure nothing is going to be wrong with you.
