Last time I got shingles I saw the doctor after the blisters were already a week old. Too late for anti-viral therapy. I think I got some corticosteroid cream.
I had some wicked chicken pox when I was a wee one.
I just looked up on the internet that one thing that may lead to shingles in young people (under age 60) is major depression. Oh goody... (can you hear me laughing hysterically?)
