Hi Everyone
Just wondering if anyone has had a similar experience as me and has any advice.
I woke up in the middle of the night 3 weeks ago with what I thought was either a ‘spider bite’ or a ‘dead arm’ on my left side’? My fingers were tingling on my left hand and I must of managed to eventually get back to sleep.
When I woke in the morning my left arm was very sore and I couldn’t lift my left arm up properly.. Long story short I had a large sore appear on my back/ left side which was tracking a red swelling around leading to under my armpit & left breast.
My glands were swollen under my armpit and this sore leaked a lot of fluid out of it sticking to my clothing. Saw GP they said Shingles put me on penicillin. I never had a rash at all just a weeping pus filled sore on my left side which made me question if its shingles or something else connected to my stomach gallbladder back problems etc??
I have been ill for quite a while with abdominal problems, extreme fatigue, nausea and what is like palpitations or a butterfly sensation in my stomach, especially at night time.
I have terrible mid to upper back pain on a daily basis and I’m not sleeping too well it feels like there is a growth in there sometimes? and something is uncomfortable sometimes when I lay on my right side in bed?
Does this sound like shingles to those who have had it?? Or more to do with my gallbladder/stomach problem? Has anyone else had similar issues? would be very grateful for any help/advice.
Thank you & Best wishes to you all x
