Hallow Dear,
Fever, abdominal pain, low back ache are not the symptoms of pregnancy. You seem to have some flue like infection along with dyspepsia. Even the bitterness in the mouth could be due to fever. Please report to your physician and get the treatment. Some analgesic antipyretic will help you. Also get your urine examined for any evidence of infection. If so, the doctor will prescribe you some antibiotics as well. However, before that you should ascertain the status of your pregnancy as some antibiotics may cause ill effects on the baby at this stage.
Yes, 10 days delay in menses could be due to pregnancy. 10 days is a sufficient time for any pregnancy test to give reliable results. You may perform either pregnancy test on overnight morning first urine sample or you may opt for Beta hCG test on your blood anytime now onwards.
I hope this helps you.
