Yes, I've had them too. The first sign is a tingling sensation in an area which follows an invisible line as it travels along a nerve.

If you can get antiviral medication in the first 48-72 hours of the very first blister occurring, you can virtually guarantee a milder dose, with less after pain.

Get thee to your doctor Sarah if you even suspect shingles. They can be really painful if left untreated even for a few days.
