Chicken pox?

I'm a 22 year old female, and I believe I have chicken pox. I have not been vaccinated because my doctor believed that I had a small case as a baby. My mother recently had shingles, so that is where I would have caught it. It started as muscle pain, headache, and a fever two days ago. The next day I also had a fever and noticed water filled blisters in random spots that easily popped and didn't itch. Today the spots are everywhere, including on my scalp, genitals, and in my mouth. The blister in my mouth is white. My urine is also darker than normal. It makes sense for this to be chicken pox, but from what I've read, it starts as red marks, then itchy blisters form? Mine just started as blisters. The ones that have popped are red with a darker red spot in the middle. Is this chicken pox or something else?
