Not too bad just getting itchy now.that is not good. Hope its not to bad.
Thanks. It’s on my back and hope it passes quickly as well.I had shingles once. Real bad burning itch for about 10 days. I had it on my thigh. Where is yours?
The Medi centre miss diagnosed it and said had a staff infection from training on the Mats at jiu jitsu. When I went back to my doctor 10 days later and she looked at it, she crinkled up her nose and asked if they did a swab to confirm it as a staff infection. I said no she laughed and said it’s shingles but by that point I was pretty much over it.
Good luck...Hope it passes quickly

I have a friend of my mothers who is a dermatologist having a look and writing me script tomorrow.If you get some amitryptiline and start taking it early in the flare-up (itchy phase), it can reduce the pain you experience as it gets worse.
I hear that he actually sleeps in a coffin covered in dirt.Did you try rubbing some dirt on it?
Well it’s a herpes virus so I blamed my lady friend for being dirty.Damn, hopefully it passes soon.
My butchers girlfriend got shingles at 26 years old. Now that would suck.
Thank @AnnikaI hope it passes real quick! I’m sorry you got that @The Old Guy.
