[QUOTE="Kidds, post: 8757987, member: 5589"] I've had them again since I last posted. Had a load of chemo and radiotherapy for throat cancer and as I was run down from that the shingles got me again. It was mild, same place as usual on my ribcage. I wouldn't normally have gone to the doctors but as a cancer patient they go on at you about such things so I did for all the good it did me. Was prescribed anti-virus but at the time I was unable to swallow anything so it was a pallaver trying to find that in a liquid form that I could inject through the stomach tube I had at the time. I think at the time it was the least of my worries and it went away before they did manage to find the whole of the prescription (came in 5 separate bottles. Normally it goes away on its own for me and it pretty much did anyway. It was so mild I wouldn't have known what it was had I not had it before. I'm fine now on all counts and wish you well too. I'm very fortunate that when I do get it I can stand it as it isn't too much. Yours sounds awful. Dad is still moaning about his, not so bad now it is warm but it hasn't gone away. [/QUOTE]
