I got shingles when I was 16. I'm now 31, and have been suffering from postherpetic neuralgia ever since. I recently started using topical capsaicin creme, and it's working wonders so far. So much relief after all of these years. Finally!
I got shingles at 35yrs. Front left thigh and lower left back. I didn't get rash on my stomach but since that time I have been in pain in those areas. Skin feels like it burns and aches to even the lightest touch. Even a light breeze over the skin or getting goosebumps hurts. It definitely changed my life
My dad is having terrible nerve pain from his shingles. It starts in his shoulder and shoots to his head, then his eye, then his jaw. He’s been to a neurologist and they didn’t do anything for him. He’s taking Gabapentin but it’s not helping. He gets pain attacks every hour to an hour and a half. There horrible. He can’t sleep. He yells and screams and can’t control it. It last about 3-6 minutes each attack. He hasn’t slept. We’ve been searching for answers and help and no drs seem to take him seriously
Thanks for posting It began about 5 days ago. Tired cant sleep then the pain started feels like your getting a tattoo from in side your skin with a tattoo needle gun with about 20 needles . And my neck feels like a a pitched nerve .
Doctor Drew I forgot to tell you I'm a 62 yrs. old woman that December 15, 2023 I had been sick for 6 days when I went to Urgent care they diagnosed me with Covid they gave me antibiotics and just as I thought Covid was going away I got a very bad case of Shingles on the whole left side of the skull on my head, ear and my jaw and nick on left side. January 5, 2024 I finally found a doctor that did help me but its been 3 months 25 days and I still have amazing pain. Doctor when I had the Covid pain was so bad I wished for death many times even said goodbye to our children and my sisters that's how bad it was but I'm still having lots of pain I don't understand That's why I wondered if it had something to do with the nerves.
My mom have nerve pain in her head from shingles and we been seeking help g F or over 5 years now and they gave her all kind of medication and it doesn’t work at all. Can you please give me you state and city where you are located please because we are looking for help she is 82 years old and still out going and driving but it also messed with her eye. Thank you in advance
Treatments...WHAT treatments? He never mentions what the specific treatments ARE, at least in layperson terms. Are they injections, surgical removal, specific medications or what?
I'm sorry to hear that. I hope the methylene blue helps! If it doesn't help after 4-6 weeks, you can reach out to my clinic and see about working with me
11 plus years ago they had the shingles on my left bun. Since then I've had no feeling or tingling or numbing just absolutely no feeling in my left leg from ito's to my butt. So just all of a sudden I'm about a week ago I've got this tremendous pain in the top of my thigh in the front and my hip and it won't go away if feels like a charley horse * 100 So my question is Woody chiropractor be able to help that or should I just keep massaging it till it goes away?
I have no idea sorry. I can't help one on one unless you're a patient of mine. If you'd like to see about becoming a patient, please visit regenerativeperformance.com/contact

April 29, 2024 Hello from Schulenburg,Texas Doctor Drew I see this video is 2 years old but I hope you see my message I need Advice on what to do for the pain and suffering on my School, I'm here on the left side. That's where I had the Shingles The pain I'm still feeling is overwhelming. Undescribable, you think I still have the Shingles. I've been wondering maybe it has something to Do with the nerves. Doctor Drew please let me know what to tell my doctor so he knows what to check for pleas. Thank You in advance for any information you can help me with ❤
Severe case of shingles around my waist Dec 2008. Treated the rash myself but subsequently endured lingering severe pain. Stabbing, ripping, burning, gnawing, and pressure. Ruined my life. I have tried everything. I live on opioids and gabapentin. As a result of the drug side effects I have retreated into self isolation. Have yet to completely conquer the pain. Much of my time is spent in bed, rarely leave the house. I am only 74 years old.
So sorry, my husband too is 75 now and suffering so much. Sounds like you to have now got post herpetic neuralgia or did it clear up for you in the end?
I got Shingles in 2007, on my head. 2024- the pain has never gone away. I developed fibromyalgia, have tried every medication for it- only to develop side effects and had horrible effects getting off the meds. Peripheral Neuropathy - I wish you the best. The only relief I got was trigger point injections. I was so happy to have needles stuck in my head and neck. That nerve starts throbbing when I get stressed. They can also 'kill' that nerve. Its a journey to find what works for you.
@@olly8 - oh my! I’m so sad thinking about anyone having to go through this horrible pain. I’m glad you were able to eventually find some help. Now as we go into June it’s still with me. I pray I don’t keep it for the rest of my life. I would love some pain free days but I do know there are thousands upon thousands out there that would also love some pain free days. 😔
I live in Vancouver BC I'm a 71 year old woman that had shingles on Oct. 16 with pain in my shoulder I got misdiagnosed with rotator cuff injust, by the time the water blisters showed up, the doctor prescribed an antiviral, but I'm left with PHN all the way down my left arm and my thumb has no feeling. There is a constant burning in the thumb joint. I have to take Gabapentin to sleep. I'm taking supplements that are supposed to heal nerve damage. I'm looking into seeing a neurologist in Vancouver. I was wondering if you are aware of any good neurological surgeons in Vancouver? I have to stop this pain asap. There is Dr. Aguila in Nebraska at the Total Pain Solutions clinic who specializes in surgery for PHN. I would fly there if I have to.
Yes yes, I will share my testimony and also recommend you to visit doctor Ani John herbal Home here on TH-cam he is such a great herbal doctor. I trusted him from the day I came across his profile page here on TH-cam and today he saved my life from Shingles HSV Virus I’m totally free from this terrible disease and am really grateful for your kindhearted doc. ❤🙏.
What can we do if it is in the face. Because i got it a year ago, it went away. It now has come back and feels like i am being woken up with a car battery to my face
I had shingles on my face too. Started at my nostril. Two years lasted and the nerve pain is still there, comes and goes. When it comes on it last about three weeks and subsides for about the same. I tried a nerve block a few times without luck. I had the bunny lines treated with Botox and that has managed to give me relief in the surrounding area, of course it’s temporary but still quite happy about eliminating some of the problem. I held an ice pack on the area to numb it before the Botox injection and that worked very well plus the nurse was quick. A dental block works too but that isn’t practical.
I developed trigeminal neuralgia because of shingles being on my face, definitely see a neurologist I was put on anti-seizure medication that helped. I also ended up relocating to a warmer climate after two years, the pain was debilitating but between those two things its become bearable, enough so that I can laugh and smile without worry.
I have all the injections you spoke of ( 4 times, one month apart) for the PHN PAIN from Shingles and still have excruciating pain. Are there any Peptides/ Peptide stacks that would help with the pain????❤
I had it for 2 months before diagnosis (no external soars). What has greatly helped me was mass quantities of B vitamins it has reduced the pain in 3 days to where I could possibly function as a normal human.
I have been suffering with burning pain around my ribs doctor told me I have shingles I never broke out and they never gave me medicine except for painkillers now I'm two and a half weeks into it still cannot sleep it burns and hurts any suggestions anyone please help
Or Doctor l had shingles in june, the shingles are no more, but now an suffering with nerves am taking Paracetamol and Tramadol to relieve the pain but now it has been a long time taking those table the Pain is not going away. What must l doctor please help me this pain is so awful

for these cases, we tend to look at BPC-157 and TB500 for peptides.
