Can this be shingles?

I went to the ER with painful bumps on the right side of my back above the pant line. Dr took a look and said it's not shingles and laughed at me.

    It could be shingles. It was unprofessional of the doc to laugh at you. What did the doctor say it is?

    Here are some pics of shingles:

    IDK WHY THE DOCTOR WOULD LAUGH AT YOU WHEN YOU ARE IN PAIN...BUT IF YOU REALLY THINK IT IS SOMETHING SERIOUS, YOU NEED TO GO TO A DIFFERENT DOCTOR WHO YOU CAN TRUST AND WON'T LAUGH AT YOU BEACUSE WHAT THAT DOCTOR DID IS SO UNPROFFESIONAL OF HIM, I WOULD HAVE HIM REPORTED IF I WERE YOU
