And the Doctor Says...

It's Shingles. My doc says it's not contagous unless I'm around HIV, AID patients or anyone who hasn't had Chicken Pocks. So, I'm continuing to work through this. The pain is bad sometimes but it's really just very uncomfortable. Feels like I have an 8 inch goose pimple on the left side of my scalp. I'm on Valtrex, which is an anti-viral medication. The doc says because we caught it in the first 48 hours it shouldn't spread too far.
