Upper body pain. Flu like but no flu

Woke up Monday morning and had aching across my stomach and ribs. Felt like I must have lifted something to heavy and didn’t realise-that kind of pain. Anyway throughout the day it got worse and is just like the aches and pains you get with the flu. I started to feel unwell too and couldn’t stop sleeping. The pain was across my shoulders,in my back,my arms and I could even feel it in my knuckles. The thing was no other symptoms. No temperature,no sore throat or runny nose. Just aching.
Yesterday was no better. I did two Covid tests-both negative. Paracetamol isn’t helping and I just feel awful. Is there some kind of weird bug going around that could cause this or could it possibly be something to worry about? Feeling lousy but also anxious. Thank you

My DS had a chest infection recently, and a colleague of mine sounded awful yesterday. I think people get these bugs when the temperature fluctuates so much, like now.
