well, it is 3am and I should be sleeping but I can't. I don't feel well and can't exactly explain it. I woke out of a dead sleep with jaw/neck/chest discomfort. Not really pain as much as a nagging discomfort. I have no idea what it is or how to treat it. I can't tell if it is a headache or muscle pain or heartburn, it kinda feels like a group of things! I took some tylenol and am just praying that it helps and I feel better soon! anyone else ever feel like this?
I'm only 5 weeks, but I feel like that sometimes, tired and achy, like I have the flu. strange, but I assume that it is a combination of fatigue and muscle/joint symptoms related to pregnancy.
I just wanted to respond to this because today, I have had really sore muscles, for no apparent reason. I don't know yet if I'm pregnant, but I took a test at a clinic today (Wednesday), and MAY find out the results tomorrow (I'm hoping for a positive--the full story is the thread "Please help! Dr. said I might be..."). I had no idea that this could be a sign of pregnancy, do a lot of women experience muscle soreness??
I don't know if lots of women feel it, but for the last few weeks I have felt very flu-ish. Like when your skin aches/feels sensitive when your sick. I assume it's just related to feeling tired and morning sickness somehow. I also have had a few really tough headaches, and I'm assuming that those, too, are just related to the rush of hormones. What a crappy feeling bunch we are, huh?

I felt like this and it ended up being my gallbladder. I had the whole neck, jaw, chest pain, that wasn't really pain, I just felt like something needed to crack in my back and that my muscles in my upper body were really tight. I ignored it and drank hot things and it would go away. One day I was out running errands and it started again and I almost passed out. I drove myself to the hospital, since it was closer than anything and went to the ER. They ran some tests, did an u/s and admitted me that day for 4 days. I had alot of stones that were blocking it. I was 27 weeks, though. I don't know if you said how far along you were or not. This is a very common thing in pregnancy, I was told. I hope it's not that for you!
