Shingle Jingle

Shingles, just what you wanted to hear about at dessert.

I do have a mild form of it we think. I got pimple like blisters on my trunk and it is spreading. Mum's friend who is a retired registered nurse believes that as I've not had pain so far, the blisters appeared on Thursday or Friday. I wont be in pain as my poor uni lecturer last year did.

She got it in the feet and she couldn't work or walk for months. I saw her some time after, when you'd think she'd be well healed and back on her feet. She walked in pain.

So it serves me right. At the time she got her shingles I had many assignment deadlines and I was so happy that she was sick that I didn't have to worry about asking her for an extension. Yes I was a bad, lazy student and so I was quite happy. I did feel very bad when I saw how much pain she was in and now that I may have it, I feel even worse for her.

So yes, it serves me right.

Don't think you'll never get it...

Vaccinate.


Ooohh a slideshow, just to gross you out!!

Hmmm, my "spots" don't look like those, but I'll still get them checked out I think. I'd rather be safe than sorry. They do look painful....
