Ohhh, I'm so sorry. What is the treatment? I had the Shingrex vaccines so I don't get shingles. Can you get the vaccine?

HALLIEBETH, do call your doctor asap. They have antiviral medications (i.e. valaciclovir and others) that can help. My husband's case was mild because he started taking it immediately.

Thanks for that. I didn't know there are meds that you can take.
