Shingles…

I got it and poo is awful…. I thought it was old people thing so when I got it, I thought I had allergic reaction to muscle relaxer…

Went to a doctor too late and it spread and caused serious nerve inflammation.  The pain is absolutely fuging unbearable.  I can barely move around.

Found out folks in 20s-30s recently had a spike in shingles for no known reason.  Shots are only given to folks 50+ unless already had shingles.

Sorry you got it, that really sucks- I have heard it can be very painful and uncomfortable.  Hopefully your doc put you on a good anti viral med that will shorten the course and severity and some good pain meds.

 

Related  story - I had a weird reaction to the shingrix vax which is a two course vax.  Last year about July or so I got the first shot- I have never had a vax hurt so badly for so long.  My shoulder felt like Mike Tyson had punched me in it every day for about two weeks. Even after that I had alternating pain and a weird weakness when lifting that arm into certain positions for several months.  Due to that,  I never went back to get the second shot.  Hearing about your experience I may reconsider it.
