It was the afternoon. I had been working at my computer most of the day. My neck was starting to ache. I just assumed that was due to the fact I was looking down at my computer. When I got home, my body was aching, and I felt hot and feverish. I could feel my lymph nodes at the back of my neck were swollen. My arms were aching too. I thought to myself that I was coming down with a cold or the flu. I just took some pain killers and went to bed.

I did some reading so I could catch it early.
Wednesday afternoon I had the same kind of feeling as you - just felt awful, aches all over, bad headache, sore glands in the back of my head and nausea. I went to work but came home at lunch and went to bed. Found maybe 2 spots but only because I went looking.
I thought it was a minor skin infection,so I decided to go to work.My body was really weak and I could barely manage to stand,but then I thought once I get to work I would be fine.
So as planned,I went to office.Worked from morning to evening,until I started feeling extreme weakness.Also,the boils on my stomach were getting me really worried.
I decided to leave early from work and go see a doctor.Getting home was difficult not only because of the traffic but also because my mind was occupied with so many negative thoughts.
I started googling about the symptoms and checking if I had them too.
Later in the evening,I saw a doctor and he confirmed it was chickenpox.I was so sad and felt terrible.Along with the sorrow of being infected came a long list of medicines.
The saddest part is that I had got the vaccination as a child.But then something's are not in our control.
