GET THE SHINGLES SHOT!!!
My wife is currently recovering from Shingles, accompanied by a secondary infection. It was the most intense, debilitating pain she has ever experienced - including child birth!
In her case, the Shingles virus attacked her optic nerve, causing excruciating pain behind and around her left eye. The secondary infection was also in the same location. She developed lesions on her left forehead and scalp, as well as on her left cornea.
The pain became so bad, she was hospitalized for five days. Her left eye was swollen completely shut. She looked like someone had slugged her in the eye with their fist.
She has been home for two days now and is resting fairly comfortably. We are hoping she will be completely recovered in about 10 days - a grand total of four weeks fighting this.
GET THE SHOT... I DID.
