I'm 35, healthy and well.
3 days ago I felt ill with a stomach ache / nausea but had an early night and felt OK on waking.
Yesterday I woke with back ache (mild) and noticed two small bite like marks on my tummy on one side. Assumed it was a bite although it didn't itch / hurt. Looks a bit puffy but small red spot type thing.
Back ache has worsened but I am looking after two small children (lots of lifting). Feel a bit run down / exhausted but not especially Ill.
Today I woke with several more smaller spots, some of which are in a short line across tummy on same side as other two (from yesterday)
Back ache much worse and spots sort of tingle / bit sore.
Is this shingles?? I'm going on holiday tomorrow and stressing it could be and do I need to do anything before we go? Will it get worse. The pain in my back is mostly at the bottom but not gone up between shoulders a bit too. I am also getting sort of shooting pains today in my side / back if I bend / twist.
Anyone had anything like this?
