Dr. Lynne Weixel answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Are you afraid?: Do you think you might have ingested a staple? It's not likely as you not that your coffee was covered. Are you in terrible pain and/or spitting blood? Again, it's not likely but you might see a Dr for reassurance it you become too upset. Consider some CBT therapy to help learn anxiety mgmt skills.
