Shingles is one of the most painful things that a person can have. I have had them several times as a side effect of some RA meds and it’s awful. But I have found and I found this medication quickly because I was on a shingles site like this. I take Acyclovir at the first sign at the first twitch that’s the secret. So far I have broken out on the side of my right neck and down my back. It’s blisters and if you don’t catch it quick and start on the meds you go through the full cycle. For me it lasted 6-8 weeks. weeks. Famciclovir, Valacyclovir are other medications you can take. No I am not a doctor but for the last four years I have fought these. I got the first Shingrix shot but not the second which was a mistake but I do believe I’ve had less breakouts.
