I am so embarrassed and mad at myself. Over a month ago I went out for some drinks with a friend I got so drunk the next morning I woke up thinking we had sex I was on my period and remembered I had a tampon in. Well I couldn’t feel it and thought I must have taken it out and I don’t remember. Well it’s been a month and 3 days since then I’ve had my period again. Ended it a few days ago but I’ve been having “brown discharge” so I thought it was old blood from my period didn’t think too much of it but it did have a bad smell. Well earlier today we had sex again. (We had a week after the first time again too.) this time while he was fingering me he said he felt something like a tampon i didn’t really know what to respond and just said really? No I doubt it and he just said oh yeah never mind and proceed. Well we kept going me not thinking about what happened a month ago, when he went deep inside me it hurt really bad not in a good way. When we were finished he said he made me bleed. I was so embarrassed and confused at this point. He was really calm and comforting told me not worry about it and he was more worried about hurting me. Well i came home thinking about the tampon and sure enough I felt it deep in there. I am so disgusted and scared! I was able to take it out but im guessing it’s been there since that time! I looked up TSS symptoms and I haven’t had a fever the only symptoms I had was abdominal pain in the morning (I thought it was just me having to pee) a few headaches during my period and the “discharge” smell. Should I go be worried about having TSS? I’m also so embarrassed and don’t want to admit to him I indeed did have one stuck! 😩 I’m so embarrassed i don’t even want to see him again I wouldn’t know what to say if he brings it up again. I’m glad he felt it because I would’ve gone who knows how much longer without knowing! No more getting drunk with tampons in for me. I’m such an idiot.
