Hi all

I have shingles and also a uterine infection. Started with flu like sore throat, then stabbing back pain for a few weeks followed by the rash a few days ago. I have fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue which has been under control for a few years now with meds and not overdoing things although i work full time. Today i am finding the pain in stomach through to back where my shingles belt lies pretty unbearable. Im on antibiotics and gabapentin and codeine phosphate but if didnt have the radh i would be in a&e now as feels really bad. 😰 does anyone elses have fibro and such pain? Or am i being a woose!

    It is important to obtain the Shingex THE NEW Shingles immunization after the current breakout concludes. It's two shots the second is a booster. The immunization will help restrict the severity and recurrence of shingles out breaks , as well as curtail nerve pain. the immunizations have helped me I have had shingles for 10 years and managed to hold off severe pain and breakouts with the old shingles and new immunizations. I highly recommend it. Always check with your doctor first. more info online.
