Hi Summertime,

I haven't had the shingles with RSD thankfully yet but just wanted to say that I am sorry your friend is dealing with this also and that I hope he feels better soon.

Sorry that I can't help you that much ... hopefully someone will be along shortly to give you some advice.

Take care,
Alison

sorry to hear your friend is also suffering with shingles.

frank is just now getting over his second bout with them..............he has the horrible pain, but with NO rash....................it is in the area of his neck, shoulder, side and back..............said it feels like a kidney stone attack but worse......................................says it wraps around his one side of his body.............he has upper rsd...........thanks for the link ej, as most shingles appear with the rash, it is good to see it is not always the case.....................

Hi Summertime, I don't know about RSD and shingles, but I thought I had shingles one time and my Dr. said it wasn't shingles. I've had various times that I've broke out in a red rash and or red dots. that hurt , itch. They are on various parts of my body. Not fun. He said it's important to always use sunscreen when out in the sun. Take care, Loretta
