Health update......

Buster is back to his normal self which is 200% and I wish who ever is beating my lower back with board would stop.
It's the constant lower back ache which comes around to your stomach area during the night plus the prickly pain if you put pressure
in the rash area. I take a couple of Nightime Pain relievers along with my 4 pill dose before bed.

Will most likely have to leave the Mustang in the barn for a while as driving would be painful getting pushed into the seat.

My wife had shingles in 2012...very painful. Stress related. Heal up soon.

Sorry to hear you’re dealing with back pain. Hope you can get some relief soon. I do love your YouTube shooting videos.

Hang in there Forty! Ain't fun. Know from experience. Just take it easy and also might consider Als' therapy along the way.
This too shall pass, hopefully sooner than later....feel better!

Get well! As noted previously, a little whiskey can help.

I wish you a quick recovery forty.

I think Al and Mags may be more medically inclined than we think. I agree with their prescription.

Good luck and glad the dog is better.

I hate to say this but it will take about a month to run it's blister and scabbing cycle.

Then hopefully you don't get any nerve damage. I'm about 12 weeks out from my initial outbreak and I still have nerve pain. Nothing like the first few weeks with the sharp pain, but I still hurt.

Usually normal pain goes down day by day. Not with shingles, it's like week by week.

Take your pain meds!!!

Sorry to read about your affliction, Coach (BTW, it's nice to see you posting again, though not exactly because of this subject). I've known too many people who have suffered from the symptoms you describe. I hope it ends well for you soon.
