Thanks Jean and Jan!!! I didn't even think about Lyrica. Steve has a bottle here of the 50 mg for his nerve pain from the chemotherapy.

I looked up the cimetidine. Its an ingredient in Tagamet. There is a possibilty it may interact with my Depakote and Symbyax.

I am a little frustrated by the doc saying I should have known it was shingles because I had it before. Geez, when I had it 7 years ago, it was in the back of my head under my hair.....hes knows my "history"....I felt he was demeaning...
