A Very Painful Rash

I was 53 years old when I got shingles around the tricep area on my right arm. Mine was only a small area but it felt like constantly being stung by bees. My fireman neighbor diagnosed it and I called the doctor on call who wrote me a prescription for anti viral and told me to start ASAP. And yes, you can't allow anything to touch the skin or OUCH!

My primary doctor finally talked me and my wife into getting the shot. The current shot is done in two shots. We had the first and affects lasted about 3 days. My whole body ached. Get the second shot when we go back in a couple of weeks. Hopefully it won't be as bad.
