Doctor: Morning. Have a seat, please. What's the problem?
Patient: My stomach hurts.
Doctor: When did you start to feel like this?
Patient: This morning. Maybe I had too much ice cream last night.

Is it also OK just to ask “When did that start?” instead of “When did you start to feel like this? ” I don’t think the original sentence is very common.
