When I stop worrying?

[trs12345]

Like my 6th post about this already.. but I'm barely getting any type of answers/advice.. I know I'm stressing too much and wasting too much energy on it, but I really need someone to talk to. Anyways, in less than 14 hours, it'll be 5 days since I was exposed to my uncle's SV (Diarrhea only). 4 days since I was exposed the second time.

That being said, I still haven't caught it. I was told before by my mother, my grandma (who he lives with) and my uncle himself that he disinfected the restroom each time he used it.

Yesterday, or two days ago, since its 12:38 AM as I'm typing this, my mom bought me some Lysol Brand III to help with my anxiety. She told me that the spray was the same one my uncle used, but he had a "hospital brand" or something like that. That worries me in 2 different ways. 1. I don't know what she meant, as I never found a "hospital brand" or whateve when I searched it, but I'm worried it wasn't Brand III as that's the only one I know that kills Noro or 2. She lied to Me to give me false comfort and he didn't use anything that kills Noro, despite him being a somewhat of a neat freak, as stated by my grandma.

If what she said was true though, and, with my luck that he used Brand III, I guess it would be safe to say I won't get sick because I was never exposed in the first place. However, there's always the chance that I was.


I don't know if I currently have it and have an asymptomatic/very minor case of it, if it happens to be another stomach issue that I happened to have gotten coincidentally, or if this is all in my head. I've been to the doctor not too long ago and he told me, in this period of time, I CAN still get it but so far no symptoms have any indication of a stomach virus.


But basically for these past couple of days, I've had very bubbly/gurgly lower intestines. I would feel as if I was going to make a very loose BM, but I'd have a hard time actually going. I've only had one loose BM and that was yesterday, likely due to me eating two pickles, as they usually had that effect on me.

Other symptoms I've been dealing with were sharp/jabbing, but not crippling or excruciating, lower abdominal/side/back pains that would subside after a short while, some stomach aches that would go away after a short while too, some burning in my stomach every now and then, a LOT of congestion in my throat, and a foreshadowing feeling that I was going to V*.

The most prominent is the gurgling and bubbling, next would be the pains and congestion.

I don't think I ever lost my appetite from this, I haven't been getting hungry that often these past couple of days, however, I believe I'm capable of eating. The issue is the fact that I'll feel, mentally I guess, that while I eat, my stomach will reject the food and make me throw it up. This, however, hasn't happened.

Regardless, I can't even eat right because I'm scared that I've got the virus on my lips since I've accidentally touched them after touching my nose, which I've touched multiple times after touching my phone, which I had resting on the counter in the bathroom that my uncle had used earlier that day, but he disinfected it way before I went in, I'm sure.

As I type this, TMI, but I did manage to make a soft, somewhat loose, BM, I felt gurgling/bubbling in *that area* before I had to go as well.

All in all, I don't know what's going on but I really don't like it. Ive had a couple instances where I thought "This is it! The virus is kicking in! My stomach hurts! I'm scared!" only for the feeling to subside shortly after I take my mind off it. I know a few times, the pains have happened when or right after I thought about the virus, but even then, it's been over 104 hours since the 1st exposure & 83 hours since the 2nd. Isn't the usual incubation 48 hours max? When can I assume I'm fine? When can I relax and realize I won't get sick? When can I eat without trying to avoid having my lips touch my food? When can I stop worrying?
