Am I sick? Or am I pregnant?

For the past little while I have been thinking that my abdominal discomfort and other symptoms were because I'm sick, I thought I had stomach ulcers. I guess that could still be the case, but the more I think of it, the more I think I could be pregnant.

To start off, I am 18, almost 19 years old. I'm not on the pill or anything, and back in April (around April 14th) I was at a party. I'm going to cut right to the point, I ended up having sex with this guy, he told me he was a virgin. He didn't use a condom and he pulled out when he "finished" but we all know it can happen before that. That was a one time and one time only thing, we don't talk anymore and I am glad for that.

Now, I have always had a very sensitive stomach. I almost always have a little bit of abdominal discomfort. But over the past couple weeks I've been pretty sick. Nausea is all day long pretty much, constant abdominal pain, exhaustion, back pain (only a little, could be from working out), things that I used to love make me sick. I do smoke, and the smell of it last night made me so nauseous I couldn't even smoke. Also, mcdonalds was always my favourite food and now I can't even take one bite without feeling like I'm going to puke. I dont know if this one is a pregnancy symptom, but about a week ago a friend was at my house and he spat and I literally had to get up from my bed and run to the bathroom to throw up. I literally threw up from the sight of someones spit. Even thinking about it makes me nauseous

Update:

Not to mention my mood. I have always been a really nice, sweet, and too shy to even tell someone I don't like them kind of person. Now, almost every one is getting on my nerves. I was in a waiting room the other day and I had to get up to rush to the bathroom (the nausea) and someone was...

Update 2:

... blocking the door and I got SO mad at them. I felt bad after, but in the moment I was so pissed off. I've just been feeling extra sensitive to everything (I cried like a baby yesterday because my phone died.) I didn't even consider this could be pregnancy until last night.

Update 3:

Before anyone tells me how irresponsible I am... I KNOW I am definitely NOT ready to have a baby. I'm not gonna pretend to be strong or something, I still have to get my own **** together and I can not care for a baby and I'm not gonna pretend I can.

Update 4:

some days (today is one of them) I can't even stand for more than a couple minutes without feeling lightheaded and unbearably nauseous

    That's how I found out I was pregnant. I was super sick all day and sleeping way more than usual and having cramps so I thought I was getting my period and I never did. I got sick from the smell of eggs and cheese which wasn't normal for me. I took a test and it was positive. I'd say it's a good idea for you to take a test.

    Those sound like signs of pregnancy. Take a test ASAP and go from there
