I think a visit to your PCP is in order, especially if you are concerned about fibromyalgia.

No fever, redness or rash, this is a tissue thing, so if I poke my side, all the way from the armpit to the waist there is tenderness.
No new meds, activities, no change with deep breathing.
Its also not constant, just on occasion.
I am wondering if it's the start of fibromyalgia and I am dreading that possibility.
Is there a squeezing sensation when it happens?

Not likely on both sides. It’s usually one side only.
I'm not a doctor but +1 I think Shingles is only on one side.

Have you started any new meds? I just started Necletol and it causes headaches and backaches, for example. How would you rate the pain 1-10?

Also— sounds like the pain is only in your upper torso— does it get worse when you take a deep breath?

Is the tenderness diffuse and are there any areas it’s worse? Like around lymph nodes?
Any redness, swelling, rash or fever?
Have you been more active than usual or doing new activities your body isn’t used to?
