@SuffferingwithShingles,

Sorry to hear about your painful encounter with shingles. While I haven't personally experienced a condition like this, I do want you to know that there are plenty of supportive people on this site (including myself) who would be willing to help find answers to any questions you might have associated with this illness...

It looks like some people suggest trying Terrasil (if nerve pain has been an issue?):

Have you tried giving any other herbal treatment options a shot (such as a essential oils or chinese medicine)?
