I wouldn’t wish shingles on anyone. They hurt like hell.

Although I did see a funny comment on another forum: “He look like he runnin’ a vape shop.”

Poor guy will get over the shingles but will have to explain the steroids in his system next summer.

“ I wouldn’t wish shingles on anyone. They hurt like hell.” I had blisters on my face over my eyebrow. The pain was so intense I thought I was having a stroke. Found an excellent retina specialist who prescribed I week of a high dosage steroid called valacyclovir, and the pain went away within 3 plus or minus days.
