I had shingles at the back of my head when I was much younger and it was awful! Mine also turned into cellulitis so be very careful .

You have my sympathies- it is horrible. Don't overdo it!

I had Shingles on one side of my private parts, and bottom! It was so uncomfortable and sore.

The important thing is to get along to a GP straightaway as soon as you think you have Shungles - insist you see them - as I understand some treatments do not work so well, if not prescribed immediately.
