Got hit with a second round of SHINGLES last week, first was 2013.
Last time, pain was minimal, hardly noticed. This time, pain was intense, from left shoulder to wrist. Why the diff? Dunno !
Symptoms are an abdominal/chest rash on only one side of body.
SHINGRIX is the vaccine, free up here !
Cheers!  Cool  
ps: still sore a week later !

YES, get that vaccination!!  
If you get no other vaccine, get THAT ONE.

I was in AGONY for over a month.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.

It's a weird disease, symptoms will not cross body's centreline. Tylenol, not Advil, is recommended pain relief. Pain lingers long.......

Had it about 5 years ago , got it after my doctor said I was too young don’t worry about it. I had to change doctors cause I was seriously going to do some physical damage to that dumb son of a bitc. Then he says it will only last 2 weeks , 9 weeks later. He better hope I never see him on the street. So yes get the shot ! I was lucky I had it on my torso around rib cage , no escaping it on my front back and sides. Misery , that POS has a kick in the nuts coming !!!

I had the pleasure of running into a man who had a license to practice medicine after he had misdiagnosed me and fed me God Knows how many injurious pounds of pills trying to solve a problem I didn't have while the Problem went undiagnosed and untreated.
He,based on his appearance, was living out of a suitcase. I suspect She took him to the cleaners. I waited for him to go to the mens room. Went in, addressed him by name and told him what a dumbschitt he is and explained Why. Stupid sunovabitch DIAGNOSED me as Manic/Depressive without One Single piece of Lab work.
After I gave up on doctors and just went home to wait to die my wife found an advertisement in the Thrifty Nickel, of all places.
Went in there, told them my history, and they took every biological sample except bone marrow.
Works out I was full of heavy metals, which imbalances PH which turns people into Petri dishes, I had low level fungal bacterial And viral infections. Standing up for more than two minutes? Nope..

Yeah, I gave that dumbass an earful.
IDK if he learned anything, tho the only thing I remember him saying was he couldn't remember my name. And that was Fine with me. Never told him..

Doctors are responsible for plenty of death and ruin. Act accordingly.

I might have caught a break! Took my last Tylenol more than 24 hrs ago. Still sensitive, but pain appears lessening.
Need to talk to pharmacist about geting vaxxed in the future.

Let me put my finger on the matter and I'm not claiming to have all the answers, but maybe you can do something with this:


Doctors learn a lot about the body but many just see it as a job. Having to deal with their mistakes is a very unpleasant experience especially because we tend to trust them and they try to radiate that trust (white coat). Recognition of the suffering caused is often hard to find.

There is a spiritual cause behind every illness but allopathic medicine has lost sight of that. With shingles it is often stress and mistrust and hostility. That then creates a climate in the body in which the virus thrives.

The pain it causes could be called a reflection of the metal pain in the body mind system.

A medicine is of course a blessing but redeeming yourself and working on a better climate in the body is often forgotten. So there is more possible than just getting rid of your complaints. I am talking about a natural well-being.

Well DR. , could my Left Big Toe be ate-up with Shingles instead of being broken ?  

I mean ,I can't walk on it so I know it's functionally Broken but could it be Shingles instead of broken - broken ?  Undecided
I hope I said that right ?

There ain't no telling how much stuff is treated wrongly every year ?

I don't think Shingles is a lingering disease, I've been off meds since Monday, just minor pain now.
Get an x-ray for your toe, to know for sure.

Well mine lingered for close to 9 weeks. Everyday it was like wearing a band of red hot steel around my torso/rib cage. Sheer Hell !

the vaccine is no picnic either. My wife had the first of two shots but had so much discomfort elected not to get the second. YMMV.
I just turned 60 so need to think about this...

I’ve heard that an extremely stressful event can also trigger the onset. I don’t recall prior to my onset. Don’t know if there is a lick of truth to that. I’ve led a stressful life up to bout a year ago , who would know what might be that stressful event !
