Shingles Suck

My poor sweet husband started feeling a little under the weather, thinking it was maybe a cold. Then had some pain by his eys, on his nose and above his lip...it began as a feeling like a pimple ready to emerge, you know the feeling? In a matter of a day, Whoa!!!! These horrible intrusive lesions took over the entire left side of his face, even his throat! Fortunately a shot of steroids brought down the swelling, antibiotics stopped any infection, and pain killers have helped to mask the pain. But we're a week into it and Joel is still in a lot of pain. Please keep him in your thoughts!!! Posted by Picasa
