Do you feel only severe pain in the back?
Are the spots appearing in a row and stopping abruptly at the midline of the back?
For how long you are experiencing shingles-suspected symptoms?

An attack of shingles generally begins with a fever, generalized discomfort like-chills, headache or an upset stomach.
Very occasionally, shingles can be manifested as a pain without a rash.
