Dr. Tyson is usually spot on.  :yes:

Really?  Shingles?
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Nope, unfortunately I'm talking about the medical condition.  I had noticed some mild flu-like symptoms for a couple of days and then yesterday morning had an itch and noticed a small rash on my lower back and somehow instinctively knew what it was.  I was off yesterday anyway to take the dog to the vet so I went to immediate care after the vet's office, confirmed my suspicion and got some anti-viral meds.  I've heard a lot of horror stories about this but so far it's little more than an annoyance.  I'm hoping we caught it early enough for the medication to keep it at bay so it doesn't get any worse.  Time will tell but so far I'm fine and back at work today.

Yeah, hopefully you got it early enough and are healthy enough to keep it from getting the best of you....

Ex, Here's hoping you caught it in time so it doesn't get worse, and you get well soon.  :flwr:

I hope it is just a mild case and that you did indeed got to it very early in the process. That sucks. . . :yes:

Good luck, Ex. My husband had it a few years ago and he had little pain and healed quickly with medication.
