Im ill

[gipper]

Meh...I had shingles and other than feeling like shit when it first appeared it was no big deal.
It went away on its own in around two weeks.
The thing that weirded me out the most was how hard the scabs were.
Shit was like armor and you cant peel em off without a pair of fucken pliers.

Yuck! My sister had it and said it was the most painful thing she ever endured, and she’s endured a lot.

Yeah...my Uncle said the same thing.
I've always had a very robust immune system so that may have something to do with it.

I used to get it on my stomach, but since the vaccine no more issues…

Ummm, he will need a new liver, so are you selling him one from China?

I've read that IVERMECTIN works well on shingles and any type of skin rash.

Ask your doctor about it.

I give Mort hell but at least he isn’t as bad as Q!

Mort briefly used Q as his avatar.

Hope you get well soon, Mortimer.

Did you have Chicken Pox?

Not that I remember but maybe as kid?

Do you guys think the doctor diagnosed me correctly? Or that could be a pigment disorder? My skin doesnt hurt, just my back and the pain radiates around the kidneys and in the stomach. I called him for back pain actually.

Psoriasis.

Not shingles if you never had Chicken Pox.

Big Pharma has tons of pills to fix that, but may cause sudden liver shutdown. Try to avoid those.

What kind of back pain?

What kind of back pain?

In the lower back and it radiates around from sides where the kidneys are and in the stomach a bit. The back pain was very strong so I called the doctor, I didnt called him for my skin.

Well then let the medicine work and if it get worse then get a second opinion but Shingles is from Chickenpox virus and can be controlled with the vaccine and right now acyclovir will do more for you.

Take the medication and it take about two weeks to cycle through.

Once healed then get the vaccine and it will prevent future outbreaks.

Eat healthy food with a lot of vitamin c in it and just research the web for ways to ease the pain.

Look what i just found maybe it is from the covid vaccination?

Herpes zoster after COVID vaccination - PubMed

COVID-19 presents in various ways, but mainly as a pulmonary disease (Marzano, 2020). Skin manifestations have been reported, including reactivation of the varicella-zoster virus (Marzano, 2020). Our case report describes two adults developing herpes zoster after vaccination with tozinameran...

I think I might have shingles, but there is also something else like maybe a broken disc in the lower back. Because I really have heavy pain in the lower back, and I can not move much, and nothing or sit in the chair or even in bed i have pain. Im like frozen in the lower back and cannot bow down to pick up something. I think it might also be a broken disc, but maybe it got worse because of the infection. I received shots, and pain medication but im not better. Maybe it wont get better any time soon and I have to go to hospital for surgery? Sometimes a broken disc needs surgery?

My prayers go out to you and your family. I hope you get better quickly.

I have shingles (herpes zoster) and i have pain, i cannot move much, i do can move but it is very painful, every step is like a earthquake for me. I have now medications for shingles and i got 2 injections for pain relief and pain medication. Shingles is a virus infection and you have pain from it.

According to the CBS Overnight News, Shingles is one of the most painful afflictions. It is where the body attacks its own nerves. I would say the only thing more painful than Shingles is Bone Cancer. You are in my prayers Mortimer.
