That's the good news. The bad news is that once you've got it, you've most likely got it for good. It might flare up again from time to time.

It is a virus, but you dont "catch" it as shingles It is reactivation of the chicken pox (herpes zoster) virus which stays in the system for life It tends to reactivate from middle age in people who are run down or immunodepressed But heyIi guess you can get all this info from the internet Strong painkillers are usually required, often a morphine analogue Hope that helps

I had mine for 2-3 weeks when I was 22-23. Very painful, thankfully only on my back and chest / stomach, was very run down and stresssed. Nearly 10 years on, no re-occurences (not even as a result of when watching Wednesday vs. Palace which sent Wednesday down!!)

I had shingles about ten years ago and thought it would not be to bad, sadly I was wrong, make sure you take tablets doctor gives you and take rest as shingles normally hits you when your at a low ebb. Took me about four weeks to get over.
Good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery
