So now I’m just 20/20

Shingles in your ****ing eye? Holy shit. That sounds horrible.

I was out of work, as a car salesman at the time, for over two months

It was disfiguring, the right side of my head was swollen like a melon… still carry several scars and have what the doc said would probably be lifelong itchy head/nerve pain over ten years later

I always thought shingles was an old person disease - until one of my high school buddies came down with it in his mid 40s. After hearing his description of what he was going through (nothing compared to what happened to you), I got vaccinated the next ****ing day.

Yeah it can get pretty bad, but I had literally never even heard of it until getting it

The night I first went to the ER, the head nurse gave me 4 morphine shots in about as many hours, maybe less… and that was the ONLY good thing about that whole deal, morphine puts you on cloud 99 hahaa
