skin pain?

Has anyone had this happen?

My skin has been hurting since saturday night. I'm not talking like dry skin or a rash but swollen, tender skin. It starts with the back of my neck, spreads up to my scalp, out to my wrists and down to my ankles. Last night even my toes turned red though they didn't hurt. It hurts to lie down, lean against a chair, get hugged, even wearing my bra hurts. I've also been nauseas for the last few days and last night I got a bad headache and a mild fever.
The skin pain thing has been coming and going for two years exactly! I don't think it's linked to my TOM as I only get it about four/five times a year but this time has been worse.
I called for an appointment and the closest one is next monday, but was recommended to call for a same-day tomorrow.

I'm just wondering if anyone has ever had their skin hurt like this before and if they have any pointers. I've been taking motrin to keep the pain and inflammation down. Usually it's gone the next day so I'm kinda freaked out! :sick:
