10. Horrible Shingles

I got shingles during a very stressful time. I was the medical person for two of my closest friends who were dying at the same time. So I was running myself ragged.

It started with a horrendous headache. By the time it was diagnosed, it was too late for the anti-viral. I got it on my face, on my forehead and around and in my eye. The pain was excruciating. I had a emergency appointment with an opthomologist to to see if it had gotten behind my eye, which meant I would lose my vision. Luckily it was just on my cornea.

I was not functioning for a couple of weeks because of the pain and my inability to think. I ended up going to ER three times, and even moved in with my 80 year old parents for a week.

I wouldn’t wish this on anyone. I have since had the two vaccines.
