Pain in the back at the lung area and under bra area

I am on about day 4 of symptoms - main symptom being able. I am absolutely shattered and sleeping a lot, have lost my appetite and feel a bit sick all the time. The main symptom that is affecting me is the pain at my lung area. Do I have the virus do you think because these are not the typical symptoms. Just feel absolutely rotten.

I've had similar symptoms. I have absolutely no idea! I have just got a v tight chest and exhausted. Also v nauseous. I'm pregnant so I'd put most of it down to that but now I'm wondering.

I'm on day 4 with those symptoms. I do have an on and off cough though.
I've not had a temperature, have you?

I have been slightly clammy and felt as if I was clearing my throat all the time but not a continuous cough.

Exactly the same here. Just generally Ill and then really tight pain across lungs and ribs

Check out the “my throat is burning” threads - pain in bra area is a common early symptom for lots.

ofwarren · 27/03/2020 17:48

My cough was just the odd one for the first 3 days but it's more often today.
All my symptoms come in waves too. Sometimes I just feel a bit weak but ok and then it comes back.
Horrible taste in my mouth too

Katkincake · 27/03/2020 17:49

Whoops meant Lungs burning, not throat threads

planetcloud · 27/03/2020 17:51

I have also got a metallic taste in my mouth

Yep, I have the metallic taste too. It's horrible.

Emcont · 27/03/2020 17:58

I have this pain right now! It feels like someone is squeezing my heart too Sad

planetcloud · 27/03/2020 18:03

None of these symptoms are on the government website though

People can be totally symptom free and still have it so I think those of us with these symptoms do probably have the virus. We all have very similar problems, especially with the lungs.

BoogleMcGroogle · 27/03/2020 19:20

I think I had it a couple of weeks ago. Textbook symptoms, but an early adopter. I remember sitting up in bed a few times with a pain that felt like a burp I couldn't get up. I also had really bad pain on the left side of my back for a couple of days and think I pulled a muscle through vigorous coughing.

DorsetCamping · 27/03/2020 19:24

Pain in middle back (almost like I'd torn a muscle) constricted chest and metallic taste. Zero other symptoms, not even breathless, so can't quite believe this could be CV

I didn’t have a nausea. Started with stomach pains, then the temperature and cough, also had pain in my ear (felt like pressure in my ear), I’m now on day 4/5 and it’s my first day without a high temperature and my chest isn’t as tight. I had a few stabbing pains in my lungs but nothing major. This is the first evening I haven’t been shivering under a blanket. For me the temperature was the worst thing.

itsgettingweird · 27/03/2020 19:33

Love that's exactly what I had. My temperature was high but not amazingly so.

giroux · 27/03/2020 21:38

I've got this pain in the back too. Slight runny nose is the only other symptom.

BubblyBarbara · 27/03/2020 23:25

I had this on and off for years and it has come back in recent weeks. It was acid reflux but not bad enough to actually come all the way up. Try antacids

Writersblock2 · 27/03/2020 23:54

Interestingly, I’ve got the same. Weird back pain, but on and off, metallic taste in my mouth, tired a lot of the time. I wondered if it was stress related?
