I'm on daily Valtrex to try prevention, but even taking Valtrex, I am still having Shingles in the same places, and very sick, a week and a half later.
Always within days of a major FB, Shingles outbreak. The more fearful and painful the FB the worse the Shingles.
Drugs not helping.
What do I do?
I get FB and Shingles about 4-5 times per year. My husband sees a pattern and thinks there could be anniversaries.
I don't know. I want to get off meds, but this is the pits. I could go blind from having them on my face near the eyes.
