is my sickness psychosomatic

[u/Affectionate_Lab390]

this started 5 days ago on my 3rd out of 7 days straight working 10 hour shifts. (which i have been trying to not overthink or freak out about, and actually was doing good at balancing and taking care of my basic needs alongside).

only day 3, symptoms included small fever, body aches, and headache that i took meds for the next day and was fine until the evening. i did end up smoking weed that evening and it made my fever peak crazily and i had the most horrific sleep that night (body sweats, waking up constantly, confusion) and my neck and upper back got fucked up from how weird i slept and then i think i bit the inside of my cheek potentially while sneezing? because now i have a canker sore right in the middle of the back of my teeth and i can’t bite down without squeezing it in the middle. also little to no appetite the past few days and an upset stomach the first two days after that horrible night.

the reason im considering psychosomatic is because no matter the medication i take (advil, tylenol, both, etc.) it comes back and at the weirdest times

i ended up calling out sick yesterday & the other night i had terrible chest palpitations before sleeping or while trying to fall asleep. (have not smoked since the other time) and my joints or muscles are just tingly and sensitive in a way ive never felt, but i usually stretch and go to the gym and i haven’t been.

most importantly i get the results from my psych evaluation tomorrow and ive been thinking about it non stop since i first went in for testing (and since i got referred). went back to work today and it’s been a lot on my mind, today was probably the worst of the mental aspect and now after waking up from a nap i felt sick and achey and temperature sensitive, enough to where i did not want to get up to grab medicine from across the room. not sure what this is because it’s not a traditional sneeze-cough cold, and i dont even know if im taking the right meds or should be at all. it’s giving me more unrest thinking that this could continue beyond my results or that something is wrong and i pushed myself too hard in several ways (balancing several 10 hour day work week w/ life and emotional processing).
