Hello, I have already posted something but for some reason no one has answered me. I will try once more. I am into my 4th week of the whole mess. My blisters which actually never bothered me at all , seem to be going away. I started applying
apple cider vinegar to the whole area. I am trying to whatever i can to ease the pain. It probably doesnt even work. The pain seems to be different every day for the most part. The intense ( and boy did i have that) pain is subsiding . Now it seems to be pinching, slightly sensitive and a knot in my upper right back. My blisters are only in the 3 rd week. Without developing PHN, does anyone know if i am
running true to coarse with this? also, does the
zostrix cream help with the inside pain or would that be a waste since the blisters dont bother me. I also want to say to the young people who are
reading all the posts and getting scared. Please dont assume you will have all those problems. Fear is worse than anything. I should know .Just tell yourself it will go away. I have to be patient but it WILL go away.

Thanks for the last part of your post (can you tell I've been waiting desperately for a response to my Q, too?)...I appreciate you taking the time to be reassuring to others when you yourself are suffering...hugs!
