Oh Judy, I'm sorry Jessie has shingles. My Mom had that a couple of years ago. It last a couple months, but it's different with everyone. It made Mom miserable at times. I don't remember if she took anything for it or not. Hopefully for Jessie it will pass quickly.

Judy, if she has to have something... I'm glad it's something that is more annoying than dangerous. Shingles definetely fits that description.
Some take pain meds for it, others don't have to. I was able to go without which was lucky since I'm on so much other stuff that it's no fun to take more. Pain meds just make me feel tired and nasty. I found it to be more itchy than painful unless I pressed on it, and then it did hurt. Mine was on my side though... along my ribs and waist... so that might make a difference too.
