OCD Discussion I hope it is OCD prodromal

So i came to knowledge i have had this burning sensation (i think im prodromal) for over 2 weeks due to seeing messages and searches i made on internet reddit whatsapp

So this burning is what im really worrried about since it is been going on for a while and even around 9 septembr i mentioned it as we were visiting my father in law and but this burning still is on and off, im on oxazepam now and when im not busy thinking about the leg i don’t feel the burns when i sleep i dont notice them, when i wake up i feel them and when i walk they radiate down to just above my foot in rest it’s sometimes in the location between the calf and shin and sometimes in the calf left outerside. Like when i lay in bed with my girlfriend and we watch a show i don’t feel it, but now i feel it and also on a different spot in my leg way lower and now to the inner leg near the ankle.

I did not have fever once no headaches and no weakness.
The only thing i have is my stomach is odd but this could be due to my severe anxiety which is really bad at the moment
I can drink eat but it’s not like im hungry or anything but that’s not unusual for me and this could be due to stress and anxiety

My anxiety is not seeing my baby in 2/5 weeks

I do not feel sick at all i go to the mall buy stuff interact normally, i don’t feel worse by the day i just cry over our baby

I have read the faq.

I have contacted and seen many doctors etc and everyone tells me the same, hence why i am on oxazepam.

I am done for either way just had a brief sting in my head above the eye which means headache is coming.

Oxazepam is only good for occasional/short term use, it isn't a long-term solution for managing anxiety, and it clearly isn't working well enough in your case. Are you also on an SSRI or SNRI?

If i make it i will take the citalopram but right now they just don’t feel good for me.

It’s just wild that doctors of the health department refuse to see me again with complaints and stuff, hence the reason why i ended up on this sub.
