Sunday evening I started to get a pain in my back and side, just below my ribs. Felt a bit like a muscle pain but I hadn’t done anything to cause it. Also thought possibly indigestion.
Monday it was bad still and in the evening got worse also my skin was really sore and felt like it was burning although no redness. Tuesday the pain got unbearable even after taking codeine by the afternoon but my gp didn’t have appointments so I rang 111 who told me to go to A&E. I was also feeling very tired and run down. They weren’t worried and gave me an appointment at ooh at 2.45am. I went there and he insisted it was muscular even though I have full range of movement and the pain isn’t any different when I move. I was sent away with Naproxen. The skin and area is very painful and sensitive to touch still and an ache underneath. I still feel very achy all over and tired.
i did ask the doctor if it could be shingles but without the rash but he said that was not possible.
The pain is still bad and I just want to know what it could be!
I’ve contacted my GP but waiting for them to get back to me which can be 48 hours.
Does anyone have any experience with symptoms like these and if so what was it?
