I was outside ( I live in AZ) and the weather is cooling off so I was outside, and I know its mosquito time, but I was tired and fell asleep for maybe 5-10 minutes, and I woke up and there were 10-15 (TOTAL) mosquito bites on my feet arms, and ankles alltogether.
Now I am tired (This was a week ago I got bit, the bites have pretty much healed and gone away) and my neck hurts, and i have a small pain in my chest area, and i am having lots of stomach issues constipation mixed with a day or 2 of diahrrea (I KNOW ITS GROSS BUT I DONT KNOW ANY NICE WAY TO TALK ABOUT POOP)
Any thoughts.

Those bites are NOT mosquito bites. If they are around your ankles, those are CHIGGER bites!They look just like mosquito bites. I have had the same thing happen to me and the best way to treat it is to get some 75% or above rubbing alcohol, get some cotton balls and rub into the bites. Now this will be a little painful, but it will not last long at all, and by doing this you will kill the infection from the bites. After that, get some benedryl cream and rub it into the bites...........As for the constipation, i strongly suggest "Miralax". I have had chronic constipation my entire life until 2 years ago when i started taking Miralax. It has worked wonders for me. I believe the diahrrea is related to the constipation problem. When you solve the constipation, that should solve the diahrrea......I hope i have helped and hope you get to feeling better!

My thought is it could be West Nile Virus...but I don't know if you have a high incidence of that in AZ. It has made quite a showing in Colorado and many other places in the USA, but fortunately not as bad as it was a couple years ago. It usually presents itself like the flu, and then gets worse from there, with neck pain, bad headache, etc. If it persists or gets worse, I would definitely go see a doctor.

Your chest pains and diaherrea may not be caused from the mosquito bites, but rather from eating food that is incompatible with your body. Can you think of any unusual foods that you've eaten that you normally don't eat?
If not, there may be a chance that the mosquitos have infected you with a virus, such as the West Nile virus. This is very unlikely though, as it is not common in the United States, but I recommend you to see a doctor to check to be safe.
Good luck and get well soon! :)

does killing mosquitoes or bugs extremely have something to do as vegans? vegans is a existence form decision some ppl made. it is not a faith whether it have been, in case you think of it grow to be good, you are able to continually go away and connect yet another church. i'm no vegan yet my maximum suitable pal is. he has been a vegan for greater suitable than 20 years. ya, he's lots only before plenty persons. besides. he would not kill mosquitoes or any inserts especially considering he would not see the could. notwithstanding, he does take needed movements, incorporate killing mosquitoes, whilst little ones are interior the dwelling house and that they are in a position to't open the dwelling house windows/doorways to enable them to out. he lives in northern canada so having huge open dwelling house windows for the period of previous due fall whilst it extremely is barely 5°C outdoors isn't useful. so he basically kills them whilst he unquestionably could. interior the summertime, he continually seize spiders, bees, even flies and launch them back interior the backyard.

It's probably not related to the mosquitoes, but you should go to the doctor if the symptoms continue or get worse.
Only mosquito-borne illness I know of in the U.S. right now is West Nile Virus, and I am not familiar with the symptoms, but people have died from it. So if this doesn't respond to simple treatment, get to a doctor or emergency room.
