in alot of pain and i have idea whats wrong ?

[candyfluff]

for about a week ive been having pains all over me - like when you get the flu - i dont have flu
my whole body hurts ,my back mostly and the most horrible knawing headache -
also getiing intermitant chest pains - my neck is so knotted up almost as if the nerves are being pinched
got an appointment for 5pm today ,just cant work out what it could be
im as we go on holiday on monday and dont want to be ill

bump

Any chance it could be anxiety?

i do get anxiety sometimes but its real pyscial pain - so bad ive taken codine for it

that should read " no " idea

Does the skin on your back hurt or is is the joints?

It might be shingles. This is how mine started.

If it is, I'm afraid you are going to be OOA for the next month!

Sounds like you've got a virus - doc will be able to confirm though - if it is a virus though only thing you can do is rest!
Get well soon x

no not the skin more like muscle pains ,pinchy nerve like pains - my head is sooooooo bad at the base of my skull and behind my eyes

i had a similar thing about 3 months ago - very samey - gp said it was a chest infection ,i dont think it was - went away after nearly two weeks - im thinking maybe its fibromyalgia ?
just been reading about it
never google huh!!

Candyfluff I know you suffer from HA pretty badley, as do I. It will just be a virus, nothing more, nothing less. You know you shouldnt google What you are doing now is catastraphising (sp?)

You have the docs tonight which is good, The chest thing will be down to you winding yourself up with worry.

Hope the docs puts your mind at rest.

it is a virus - lol
she said my glands were up and my throat looked swollen
gave me a script for ab's if it gets worse to take on holiday but just to rest and drink more take painkillers
my head feels like its gonna pop
got packing for 5 of us to do so dont see much rest going on
