yesterday afternoon my lower back (right above my butt crack) starting hurting but I still went to Zumba. When I got home it was still hurting a bit so I went and got in the tub and soaked.
Around 11 when my husband came to bed he touched me and gasped and ran into the bathroom and got a wet cloth and put it over my head. Apparently he said I felt like fire. I got up my average million times to go pee and had no problems going.
I didn't go to work today bc I wasn't feeling it. But now my husband and mom are urging me to go to the doctor to get swabed for flu. I don't feel bad at all besides my back still hurting, I took my temp and it was just 98.2.
I don't want to be one of those people that goes to the doctor every week but I would hate for me to really have something the matter with me.
Re: WWYD
I had severe back pain early on. It felt like someone had taken a baseball bat to my low back and butt. It went away after a week.
Dr. said it was typical of pregnancy. If you are not running a fever and do not feel bad otherwise, me personally I would not go.
No fever, no doctor. I work at CDC and all docs do not swab for flu so it may be a waste of time going just to see if you have the flu. If your fever elevates, def call or go. Other than that, I would just relax and monitor your symptoms.
