Sore throat? There are goddamned even spots IN it.
Temp? I cannot check it. All I know is that I'm rather warm from the outside than from the inside.
Cuts and scratches? Nope, but I'm pissed enough to give those to myself.
Been asleep most at the time. And my own body is testing my goddamned patience.

Everytime I touch ANYTHING or physically feel anything! From eating and drinking to sneezing.
And yes, spots everywhere. I cannot take a picture because I cannot upload them and I never took a picture of myself...
2-3 days since suspected exposure?
Spots externally AND in your throat?
The timing isn't right - I suspect you came into contact with someone a lot more than 2-3 days ago who was infected with the virus and you just didn't know it. As I said, the incubation period for chicken pox is between 2 to 3 weeks in adults. And the first symptoms in adults aren't usually spots. You'll get headaches. muscle pain, temp etc. In children, usually the first sign they experience is spots. Although, you are only 20.
External temp sensations don't count. It's internal core temp we need. Accuracy! Get a thermometer - better still, go to a Doctor!
It sounds a bit like shingles but if it were, I think you'd be experiencing a hell of a lot more pain (usually) but not always.
Both chicken pox and shingles are caused by the same virus (Varicella) and cause the symptoms you're presenting.
You
R E A L L Y need to see a physician.
As I said earlier, it really can be life threatening.
Are you still up and about? Are you still functioning normally in life?
More like stuck in my room all day and asleep half the time. I feel like crap and everything tastes like crap.
