Answers:
It is unlikely that you would get TSS after one night of leaving a tampon in for numerous hours. It is rare for a woman to get TSS and in the unlikely event that you do, you would know. Symptoms may include a high fever or sick to your stomach type of feeling. I wouldnt worry about it too much though. I have been sleeping with tampons for about 8 years now and I have never gotten TSS. So dont worry. Health Question & Answer
You should be fine. However as mentioned before be sure to see a doctor if you begin to run a fever or become nauseated. Toxic Shock is rare but it does happen.Health Question & Answer
