Hi Ada,
Sorry I must of missed the post about your shingles. Shingles can be a real b....! My Uncle had them really bad and we took him to my pain doctor and he received shots for the shingles. His was mainly on his torso and the shoots worked wonderful for him. Ofcourse he did not have RSD. And today he is shingle clear. I hope the treatment works for you. I have worried about myself with shingles. Both sides of my family has had them at different times and I had a mild case of chicken pox when I was a kid and from what I understand chicken pox has something to do with getting shingles later in life. I have been told that if you had a light case of chicken pox as a child you are more likely to develope shingles as an adult.
It amazes me when someone brings up a topic and I say to myself wow that happens to me to. Brusing I never brusied easy prior to RSD but now if I get a bruise or a black and blue mark it takes forever to go away. Which is something that never happened pre RSD days. Weirdes desease in the world.
Ada I hope you feel better. We are getting another 9 inches of snow today on top of the 8 inches that is still lying around from prior storms nothing melts up here. My daughter has not a full week of school since before xmas. My son is happy he works at a ski resort and if he can't down our mountain they come and get him.
Good Luck keep us posted
