I woke up Wednesday with a sore throat. Thursday with a stuffy nose. Friday with a cough. So Saturday I had all three and I thought that it was a sinus infection cause my ear started hurting really bad too. Sunday I woke up feeling a little better. Until later that night... It was around 10 and I was drinking some beer (I only had Three, they weren't sitting right with me) and an hour or after I stopped drinking I felt really sick..I started to feel really warm like I had a fever (And my body just felt crappy like it does when i do have a fever) but it was only 98.7. I started to get the chills too, it was really bad. I went in the living room and laid on the couch because I wanted to be closer to the bathroom. Every time I moved or rolled over I felt like I was going to throw up (But never did) Then my lower back started hurting. I finally fell asleep but it was only for maybe a half hour. I woke up and went to get something to drink and couldn't see right...I was all wobbly and couldn't walk straight..So I laid back down and laid there crying for a while. Then passed out and woke up around 7 a.m and when I got up to go to the bathroom and back to my room I felt like I was going to REALLY pass out...I couldn't stand on my feet for too long..It was really crazy..I feel a little better now but my back still hurts and I still get sweaty and feel sick.

And about 2 weeks ago I woke up at 2 in the morning feeling really sick..I was nauseated and had a fever..Then I ended up throwing up around 7am. But after that I was fine.

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
The increased tiredness, flu like symptoms, headaches, dizziness, nausea, feeling sick, low back pain, could be suggestive of pregnancy. Wait and watch for your periods. If you suspect to be pregnant, look out for development of any other new symptoms suggestive of pregnancy. If you do not get your periods within 10 days of your actual expected period dates, or get altered bleeding or develop any symptoms suggestive of pregnancy, visit your doctor/gynecologist. An examination (to confirm pregnancy related changes/signs in body) and blood/serum HCG level test (to confirm/rule out pregnancy accurately) would help.
Take care.
