I found this board while searching the net for anything - something that can help with the pain I have from a recent episode of shingles...

I guess it hasn't been that long - I'm on week 4 now. I had a very bad outbreak on the back of my head.. around my neck and partially down my chest. I had no pain with the blisters or the scabbing - it now looks really good but I can't take the pain.

I have been using cold compresses for some relief - I'm on Vicodin and today got some Lyrica - something has to help....

thanks for listening -

Teri
