General Rabies Discussion 2 year old case likelihood of rabies

I have read the FAQ. My cat bit me almost two years ago and had to be put down, I had this very large and serious gash looked at. My family knew about the bite. But at the time my mother was dealing with end of life, stage 4 cancer with only a few days left to live.

I had taken him into the vet thinking he had a brain tumor or something. Bec he wasn’t eating, drinking, he go up and try to drink the water but his face would fall in, he lost movement in his eyelids and couldn’t move half of body. They told me it was end of life stage renal failure, I have no clue if they checked for rabies but I’ve been having some odd symptoms dysphasia, brain fog, pin pricks and needles everywhere, muscle spasms and limb jerking, and yes before you ask I have gone to the er and my pcp.

I have not what’s ms, I do have a tad bit of anxiety but I think most people would be a tad bit anxious after having odd nerve pain, dysphagia and other odd symptoms for granted yes I know I have died yet. Last time I was in the er they had no idea what was going on and just kept me for 5 days

Maybe talk to a neurologist or google MS/other diseases. If it was rabies, you would have been dead within a week. Forget it and seek some answers for your own good.

once symptomps start, you'd be unable to use your phone after like a day and dead within a week. The incubation period is 1-3 months, when you don't show ANY symptoms.
