Is there anything in particular I should know about MS and shingles? Any suggestions on how to manage? Anything "natural" to use along with the Valtrex?

I have never had shingles and am not a happy camper right now.

Thanks for any help you can give!!
Well, Natalie, I guess you'd just as well make the most of your shingles and start a roofing business.

Oh that was baaad -- sorry!!!

Sorry about your stupid shingles -- that stinks! I hope its a mild case for you, friend. Feel better!!!
