Headaches come far and few in between with me. Carrie has commented in the past as to how seldom I get sick to my stomach or have the flu. I hit the jackpot. I have a humdinger of a headache with a stomach that feels like it should be fed, but I had better not, right now . . . plus I have the shingles virus. A trip to Urgent Care took away any doubt of it last night. So which side of my torso is effected? They begin in the armpit of my right arm and travel all the way down to my thumb.

I do have a prescription to help contain more of the blisters from blooming. Some of the side effects range from feeling lethargic, feeling restless and sleep may be hard to come by. It is a blessing that our home is only 720 square feet. My choices of ricocheting off the walls is slim to none. In three weeks the blisters should subside and more will be known if there are lasting effects from the virus. On the up side, spring temps are on their way and that brings good feelings regardless of the bumps in the road.
