“ 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.
I have a good friend that had them. I had been putting off getting vaccinated, but after I saw what he went through, I cut a trail to my doctors office to get the Shingrix vaccine. The vaccination made me feel a bit feverish both times (comes in two shots) I have no regrets taking it, though..
