Supposed to travel/drive 6 hrs with DH and DS next thurs-sun for his bffs wedding (which ds is in), hope I can handle it! Dr. gave me Norco for the pain, Valtrex, Pepcid and Prednisone. I have gotton mixed advice from the Dr., 2 pharmisits (one a good friend who also bf'd) one LC (from DS's pedi) and the internet as to safety of bf-ing. Any comfort tips? Should I even go to wedding? (contagious?) DH's parents are driving up and staying at another hotel to watch DS for the resecption/wedding for us (woo hoo date night?!?!) and all reservations have been made at hotels. wwyd? TIA ladies!
Wow. I don't really know anything about shingles other than the commercial they run all the time. I hope you feel better quick and can sort out the wedding.
I don't think shingles is contagious. It comes from chicken pox virus that is already dormant in your body from having it earlier in life from what I gather. I'm sure it's not fun though! Sorry you are having to deal with it!
