Dear Lori,
I have been dealing with Shingles for the past month. I was diagnosed April 30th after a week of severe ear pain.
I am healing well and all of my blisters are scabbed over. My doctor wants me to take lyrica for the remaining nerve pain. I really do not want to take anymore drugs, but I am still taking tylenol #3 twice a day for the nerve pain. I am now trying to switch my focus to my upcoming teeth extraction on June 17th.
I hope there is no conflict with having my remaining four teeth removed and having Shingles. None of my doctors have an opinion about the safety of this. My dentures were made in October, so I really hate to put this off any longer. But I am not looking for any more problems. I hope you are well and I look forward to the guidance from you that I have found so very valuable. I will keep you updated. Please let me know how to prepare for the extraction on the 17th.
Thank you so very much,
Holly
