Could all tss symptoms occur at once?

Toxic shock: We don't see toxic shock very often anymore even with prolonged retention of a tampon, but the symptoms occur at variable rates and severity. Since TSS can cause death, it is probably best to get evaluated as soon as possible. Maybe even going to the ER.
