I don't have a life changing problem, just one that makes it extremely uncomfortable. It acutally got me dismissed from jury duty today. :0)
I have a bad case of the shingles. OUCH!
The itching and burning tends to wake me up at night, so I'm a bit tired and cranky. :0(
It is a little better today. I'm taking an anti-viral med and a topical steriodal cream. I'm not going anywhere I don't have to. I can't wear my bra. The ladies fit in a 36 D. So you can definitely tell when they aren't corralled. ;0)
I'm not comfortable going out without it, so I'm being a homebody right now.
I'm just not in the mood to crochet or loom knit. I think it's because I'm so tired.
hugs,
Sonja
Wish there was something more we could do for you, but thoughts & prayers going out for ya. Hope you feel better soon.
Have you tried oatmeal? just get it nice & soupy & then spread it on (best to do in the shower) wait 5 minutes & then rinse in cool to warm water. It always helped me with itching (I am a big poison ivy person)

Oh Sonja hon, I feel for you! I've had shingles several times myself and the pain is horrible. You are in my thoughts and prayers. If you can get something for pain it will help you greatly.
Hugs, Paula
Shingles are awful,,, I had them about 5 years ago, thought I was going to go insane, of course my hubby said it would have been a short trip. Dont worry about the "ladies" I am sure they are enjoying a bit of fresh air, tee hee. Hope you are feeling better soon, You are in my prayers!!!
Ooohhh, I feel for you. I had shingles on one side of my head. It even hurt to touch my hair. Take pain pills. It does help. I had to take them for two years.
Last year I got the shingles shot. I don't ever want them again. Prayers are being said for you.
