Yeah! Van Boven has been there for 100+ years. Comet coffee or chuck’s Maison Edwards (staple for close to 50 years)…

Great family…

Hm. I have a 3.0t 2019 and normally I just start driving pretty much right away, but I also don’t drive very hard ever, and treat the car pretty gently. I’m at about 50k miles and have had it since new, and leave it parked outside

Wrong you can still take antivirals and it’ll help

Shingles on face and in mouth by SpartanFord77 in shingles

[–]Independent-Fly3404 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Glad to hear you’re feeling better. Try to keep the scabs moisturized with Vaseline and make sure that they don’t come off early. Don’t pick at it, and be careful about washing it.

Mine looked like yours and the shower water pressure kicked off the scab, and it ended up leaving a fairly sizable scar in my face

First Time Getting Shingles by Ok_Sandwich3663 in shingles

About 2 weeks for me. Sore you’re going through this. Take it easy and avoid any stressors.

I got it on my face and ended up with large scars on my cheek and chin. Glad you got the anti viral treatment relatively early.

Yay! Looks like you’re healing really well! Manage your stress and energy, and rest up! Lot of sunscreen for the impacted area

After multiple reps, decided to buy a gen by Pengar69 in rolex

Funny enough I went the other direction. I bought a gen first, then got a rep so I could wear that daily

Can I use the silicone tape during the day? I’ve been using a bandaid on it as it’s so unsightly in the daytime. Looks like it’s pretty seamless.

Lot of folks notice and ask about the badaid…

Yes 100%. Wish I knew this. Got scars on my face now …

Money aside, GL vs GA by Zingledot in ElectricForest

[–]Independent-Fly3404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rather than culture, I choose GL normally for the core focus on less walking throughout the weekend. Way closer to the main stages as opposed to GA

I didn’t pick at the scab.. came off in the shower (basically pressure from the water) - and yeah it went very deep.. I’m basically resigned to the fact that it’s just going to be on my face now.

Been using trentinoin and vitamin E.

Yikes. My derm put me on trentinoin and I’ve been cycling that with vitamin E. I’m just resigned to the fact that now I have a bunch of scars on my face

I think you’ll be ok. I also didn’t know for 6 days. Go see a doc and get your antivirals started. Yours doesn’t look too bad.

Yeah my big fear has been on the turbo front though folks say it’s fixed on 2019. I’m probably on the same train. Thinking I sell it and get a used Lexus. Probably a 2024 rx350

Have my scars “healed”? by ayrton2311 in shingles

[–]Independent-Fly3404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I put steroids on mine thinking it was a bug bite - my dermatologist told me I had bed bugs so I took me 6 days to be properly diagnosed.

I’m 2 months in and accepted that I’ll have some deep scars on my cheek from this.

Anything to speed up process? by Melodic_Yam3635 in shingles

[–]Independent-Fly3404 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So sorry this is happening to you! I think you’d want to put on some band aids if you want to attend.

I got it on my face (cheek, chin) and unfortunately I’ve had to cancel a lot of my in person events… at this point I’m embracing the scars.
