It's sort of a combination of the worst sunburn you've ever had, while at the same time being bitten by an entire colony of fire ants. <br /><br />My physician was skeptical, but eventually told me that whatever worked was fine. The standard med for shingles, gabapentin, made me queasy and dizzy, without alleviating pain. So even a few hours without hurting is worth the eye-roll of Dear Doctor.LinBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18201009126846898608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-2784596691424833832021-03-03T13:11:52.332-05:002021-03-03T13:11:52.332-05:00Thank you, Elise!Thank you, Elise!Stanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259788604423472207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-70907679763476995822021-03-03T13:10:15.863-05:002021-03-03T13:10:15.863-05:00Thank you, Sue.Thank you, Sue.Stanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10259788604423472207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-13924659455997625032021-03-03T13:10:04.409-05:002021-03-03T13:10:04.409-05:00Thank you, Terrie.

My neuropathy lingers, four months after the blisters disappeared. I pop those vitamins whenever the "ouch" gets too much to bear ... sometimes every hour, sometimes only once a day.

At least I don't think I had them. I got my second Covid shot late last week. I had decided to get the shingles vaccine out of precaution a couple of weeks ago. The pharmacist told me to wait at least two weeks after the Covid vaccination. I think your ordeal has given me another good reason for getting it done.<br /> Jeanettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07010785925508241790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-45231352072050125672021-03-01T22:54:21.633-05:002021-03-01T22:54:21.633-05:00My mother suffered terribly the last two years of ...My mother suffered terribly the last two years of her life from post-herpetic neuralgia, nerve pain in the right side of her face that never ended after a bout of shingles. It is not an inevitable after effect of the disease, but is not uncommon, either. I am convinced that fighting the constant and intense pain weakened her enough that it led to her losing her interest in living, and eventual death. Please, everybody, get the vaccine.<br />Diane Smithnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3372432081562643074.post-52065494889032928702021-03-01T22:13:45.479-05:002021-03-01T22:13:45.479-05:00To Meg- - if you are talking about it, the second ...To Meg- - if you are talking about it, the second Covid shot, go to ahead and take it when you can find it.

This is off the other topics and while I've been slow to the party, so to speak, I do have to give props to Agent Carter, which ran on TV in 2015-16, for its portrayal of a strong woman lead, but just as importantly, who dresses very effeminately most of the time - since it takes place in the 1940s. There are almost never pants and pants suit and the dresses, shoes and accessories are always very feminine. There is also the occasional reference to clothing and shoes because, well, the show was geared toward us ladies! It's sad, though, that it was only on for two seasons.
