The pain is really awful, so I sympathise, especially since I have just had 2 weeks of sciatic nerve pain in that same leg. I was watching out for the blisters to arrive but none this time.

Don't know about you Margaret, but when I had shingles it was a very funny pain, just like some one pushing hot needles in me all the time, I certainly don't want them again
