Does this sound like a virus?

Have been feeling off last 48 hours or so . Pain in my back and abdomen/chest, dizzy/lightheaded, excruciating pain in face/sinus pain and exhaustion . No cough/cold symptoms. Just struggling to do simple things like breakfast without feeling exhausted and giddy .

I’ve got depression anyway and can’t quite figure out if it’s the depression making me feel like shit or a viral thing . All I want to do is lie down and watch TV/sleep , but that wouldn’t be entirely unusual for me on a normal day ... am I over analysing and probably just full of some sort of virus ?

I had this over Christmas! I’m sorry to say it lasted about 5 weeks and I had a course of antibiotics and a steroid spray in the end. I lost 5lbs from lack of appetite and went to bed at 7pm most evenings. It was horrid. Painkillers didn’t touch it.
