Is it fear or rabies?

[sohamsen]

Let me explain each and everything from start->
So from past 2months i have extreme fear from dieing of rabies.There were 4encounters with dogs in my life.Mainly the 4th is my fear however i explained everything.

1st=Almost 4Years ago A group of 3dogs ran behind me.However i successfuly managed to escape from there.At the beginning of my fear of rabies i thought about it but later overcame of the fear of this encounter.

2nd=Almost 3years ago my neighbour's dog slightly scratched me with his teeth in my hand.I just washed the wound.Didnt took any vaccinations cuz i thought it was a pet dog there is no chance of getting rabies from that dog.That dog died after 1.5years of that incident.I was panicked mainly with this situation.I thought what if he died of rabies.Later i found if he had rabies he would have died in some days or probably some weeks.Also i asked the owner and he said he vaccinated his dog.So i also overcame it.

3rd=Same like 2nd situation.A neighbour's dog bit me several time.However i overcame from this fear cuz i know they vaccinate the dog and also the dog is still alive after 1year.

Now the 4th=
8months ago I was feeding a bung of stray dog pup in our locality when he tried to climb onto my foot. I felt some of their claws poking me but did not receive anything that could be considered a "scratch."I researched bit on google and got very scared.From past 2weeks I'm having thigh muscle aches.Then suddenly yesterday i got prickling sensation all over my body especially in face.I googled again got scared immediately cause every symptom matched.Also from yesterday im having muscle twitches.Also i have cold.Then i googled a bit and every intial symptoms matched.I got extremely panicked.Suddenly a cough with lots of sputum came to my throat.Im extremely feared.Muscle aches,pricklings, twitchings usually don't last.They usually gone and temporary.Symptomps usually come and gone by its own.When i go to sleep symptomps wasnt there and again come if i woke up and think about it.When i masturbate all symptoms gone.

Facts:
1.our locality there was no history of rabies death and rabid dogs.Im sure cuz every dog is healthy and alive for more than a year.Also my dad told me.I live in india,i know its high on rabies death but in our locality there wasn't a single case.
There is no bats and skunks,ferrets in our locality.Especially vampire bat who spread rabies not available in india.

2.Mother of those pups are still alive and also every dog of our locality.Also 2 pups grown big and alive.Other pups died because of cold and lack of food(i think personally if they bitten by other dogs they would be dead instantly and if they survive still in our area they wouldn't caught rabies cuz other dogs in our locality is rabies free).

3.Also i think if one of em had rabies others would have also.All pups will die because they eat together play together and sleep together.Since 2pups alive so chances are low.

Please help me my symptomps are only for anxiety or is it rabies? please tell me some good news

Only a doctor can tell you that, not us.  And the only way a doctor can tell is if you bring in the dog that bit you, assuming a dog did bite you.  Don't know the law in India, in the US you're required by law to vaccinate your pet but if these are wild dogs, they're no doubt not vaccinated.  Dogs don't die from rabies right away.  I seriously doubt you have rabies, but again, the only way is to tell is what I described.  And in the future, be very careful around wild dogs.  Once you've finished finding out if you have rabies, it's time to do something about that anxiety.  Ever seen a psychologist?  And stop Googling symptoms -- the only time Google is useful is when you have a diagnosis and are making sure your doctor isn't a quack.  Just Googling symptoms will make you believe you have thousands of diseases, because so many of them have some symptoms in common.
