Guest guest Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 yes it is shingles. This is the 3rd time I have gotten them. I had them last year and also had the symptoms of FM but didn't know what it was.. Di Re: Shingles and FM Hi Yes I have had severe shingles before. The Dr. called them blanket shingles as there was complete coverage of almost half my face , neck, and head. This was right before my actual diagnosis when we were trying to find out what was going on. I was told that my immune system must be rock bottom to get it that severe. Hope yours turns out to be something harmless and not shingles (although I'm told they have new meds now) Good Luck A Canadian Friend White wrote: Well, it feels like I am getting shingles on my cheek. I had shingles last year and it feels like that is what I am getting on my face today. (Bruning paint running down my cheek towards my mouth) I will call the DR in the morning but I was wondering if this is linked to FM? Has anyone had this problem.. Thanks I've had shingles befoer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
