Hello, thanks for contacting HCM with your question.
Sounds like you have a "Viral" infection of some sort.
Severe pain between shoulders and upper abdominal pain
may be due to constipation and gas build up. Good to drink
water. I also suggest that you can use some milk of magnesia
to relieve the constipation. If you continue with fever , sore throat
and have any swollen glands in the neck , you might visit your
doctor for possible antibiotic therapy.
I find this answer helpful
