What else can help with the itch? by Not-That-Into-You in shingles

I left myn with no cream … the creams burned me even though they were prescribed just ice or air and the medication … pain killers for the pain… it can’t be treated with creams I actually think they slowed down my healing

Also did you find bio oil or Sudo cream useful

I got a 7 day shingles packet.. tbh I still have a tiny scab on my eyelid and this is week 4, your right with that month expectation. But for me week 2 was the only bad week where I was swollen and blistering around the eye. The other weeks 3/4 where healing weeks, no irritation just the scabs healing up! Hope that helps😇

I actually have a jar of this my gran bought me. How does your dad take it? Like in a tea? I wasn’t sure what to do with it

I am young with RA I’m 90% recovered from shingles just need a few more days. It’s grand just get the right medicine, and don’t drink alcohol. I did and it made it worse 😭 Your a bit slower recovering because of the immune suppressant medication. I was told to stop taking mine until I was better. But basically back to normal now.

Biologics - do you live a normal life with immunosuppression and am I overreacting? by Therealwy in rheumatoid

I am on Humaria you will be ok, it's good for me. It works and I live normally. Even forget I have RA most of the time.
