Good Morning...

Have any of you ever had shingles??? I think I might have them now.. I had this blister like rash develop on my upper back (near my left shoulder blade) and under my left arm.. At first I thought it might be poison ivy.... but man .... does it itch and hurt... kinda like needles sticking me..

I was reading on WebMD where you can get shingles sometimes when your immune system is compromised. It also said that the nerve pain is sometimes treated with Neurontin (which I am already taking) so maybe that's why the pain is not as severe as it could be..

I hate to call the doctor AGAIN... seems like I am constantly complaining about something... I feel like a hypochondriac..

Can any of you offer information??
