There fun that's all im going to say

had to take the next week off
 
Wife did a few years back. She was really ill with it. Took a fair few months to properly get over it.
 
Years ago. Interesting event. The rash follows a nerve line doesn't it?

I think it's most common on the face !

I presume you have been afflicted?

Don't read the internet side effects and issues it can cause, you won't sleep for worrying.

Spend your time trying to find the answer to that Main HE problem. I left a message with the one who knows but he must be off this week. When he comes back to me I will let you know what he said

Had them a week now doc said there starting to scab and should be gone within a week and half then tenderness and no heavy lifting for a month then should be all gone
 
I am not wanting to sound depressing, but need to look after your health Shaun.
Shingles can be brought on if you are run down a bit, or have an immune disorder. I know that from what happened a relative of mine.
In elderly people it is common.
I think the virus lies dormant in your body and strikes when you are less resilient.
Important that you got it treated quickly. Anyone who leaves it too late will have pain for life
 
I had it about 10 years ago. At first I thought I had broken a rib.

I read all the online horror stories, but to be honest, it wasnt as bad as I was expecting. Swallowing the enormous blue pills was the hardest part. I was back at work after about a week, and all symptoms gone soon after that.

Exactly the same broke a rib and bad back

I was lucky. Never caught it. It goes back to the chicken pox virus I think. I had chicken pox as a kid, totally spotty but not ill. The wife never had chicken pox, so I don't know if that had anything to do with it. She had it over her chest, neck and scalp.

It does, it's all herpes linked:-
Chicken pox, shingles, Glandular fever, etc

Now that, Glandular fever, is hell on earth !

Very itchy but i didnt have much pain luckily.
 
Picked them up 12 years or so ago after working in a right scabby house.
