First of all thanks for the support from everybody. I just had my worst Fathers Day ever. I first had my shingles outbreak May 1st. Now it is the end of June and having another outbreak. I am so depressed. The depression is getting the better of me. I could not sleep and go back to the doctor in a few hours. He has not been much help or understanding at all. My kids were so kind to me on Fathers Day. I don't know how I am going to make it through another episode. I just thought I was starting to feel bettter and the not I feel like crap again. I want to thank everyone that has been so kind.

My shingles don;t seem to be the nice ordinary kind. I had them on my beltline right. Now my left side. They have left my ears ringing which is really annoying. I am so depressed!
Not sure this is ever going to end....

God Bless you all.
