Yikes.... I hope you feel better soon! I had shingles this past winter, my right shoulder felt like it was on fire to the bone. I work in a hospital and went to our occupational health dept to get some 'exercises' to loosen up my stiff shoulder. Uh, I got sent home and told to stay away from work for a week. I think I slept the entire week. I still have pain in the bone just about everyday. Sleep, sleep, sleep- we will be here when you wake up :):)
