miracle29 Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Ok, so the small patch of shingles on my side has gone down quite a bit, however I wake up this morning and see a similar patch on my thigh. My left thigh to be exact. Is this normal for it to get worse before it bets better? I'm on medication. Could the meds be bringing this out of me? Link to comment
Cognitive_Canine Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Shingles take a long time to get better. My friend had them all over his back for a good 3 months. Link to comment
Crazyaboutdogs Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Shingles has a certain "line of travel". When I had it it was on my back, torso and stomach. Not fun. Link to comment
Seraphim Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Mine stayed localized to the patch on my neck. Link to comment
miracle29 Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Oh the fun of Shingles. I'm not looking forward to this my friends. Link to comment
Crazyaboutdogs Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Yes, but when it is all over you can walk around with your "I had shingles badge" and it will elicit much sympathy from those people who are not members of the "shingles" group. How about a new singles group..."singles with shingles" LOL. Link to comment
Cognitive_Canine Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 The guy I know got shingles when he was 17. What kind of 17 year old gets shingles!? Link to comment
