Hi,

My doctor recently went on a vacation, so since he was helping me

with pain management, I decided to make another visit a bit sooner

than I would normally. Well the trip to the doctors and back really

threw my whole system off balance. So I called another doctor and he

told me not to expose myself anymore and that I was having a

reaction to a chemical sensitivity (CFIDS and MCS). I rested a week

and then went to a potluck even though I was really pushing myself.

I knew I was still worn out but pushed myself to go because I

figured a potluck was handy since I was too tired to figure out what

to fix for dinner and bringing the side dish I planned seemed

easier. Well I didn't listen to my tired body and woke up the next

morning with a sore on my left buttock, come to find out days later,

I have shingles. Not sure how long I've had it but I've been so

wiped out the past few months that my son has been helping with

extra chores.

Peace,

Kulia
