Shingles & flu shots
I had shingles in my left eye when I was 50 in 2009...thought it was poison ivy until I was referred to an opthamologist who diagnosed the shingles. It took over a month of prescriptions and wearing my sunglasses all day (I was very light sensitive) before the medication was effective. Was told that I should have the vaccine...finally had it this year when my wife asked about it when we received our flu shots...although both arms were sore for a while, I am glad we now have the protection.
