Anyone else experience pain in areas that didnt have the blisters??  I had three little blisters right above buttocks. The pain around blisters is non existent but is all over  abs chest and stomach. Digestion was effected. Grumbly unsettled tumy after eating ir drinking lower back pain which i never had previously.  Its achy deep dull burning with occasional stabbing

Any feedback appreciated thanks fellow sufferers

    Hi. You can develop shingles without any rash at all. I had an atypical presentation. My pain was severe for about a week and then I developed what look like hives on my right side , chest and back. There were no blisters and the rash was gone in about 2 days. It took 4 months to get a diagnosis. Herpes zoster was confirmed by blood work.

      Hi jeaneen thanks for your promt reply. Ya my mother n law auffered for a year n half before finding out it was shingles so i can also attest to the truth in that. She never had any blisters. Im more curious if where u get the blisters doesnt hurt why doesnit hurt other places. I just want to know where to attempt easing the pain with accupuncture and laser but dunno where to direct them. To the blister area that doesnt hurt anymore or the areas that are actually causing pain wheicj there was no blisters. Man this s**t is crazy i tell ya. Its consumed my thiughts   So mysterious. Thanks guys

    Yes,  I have much the same thing.  Just a couple little blisters that sometimes itch but are not painful.  They do not go away like a typical shingles rash.
