I had shingles 3 years ago.
Post hepartic pain in left eye since then.
It has been off the hook painful on some days since the 1st shot.
Gave up on Gabapentin and Lyrica. They are weaker than decaffeinated coffee and don’t work
find a doc who will administer alpha-lipoic acid via venous infusions ... that worked a miracle for me after i got unbearable median nerve pain due to a semi-botched cardiac catheterization via the radial artery ... nothing to lose ...
Try L-Lysine
Helps my neuralgia pain.... # 1 remedy for any Herpes type issue.
Good luck
Bless your heart. :(.
Did they try try Acyclovir?
Had shingles twice on my trunk through the years.
