My DD goes to a specialist to get nerve block shots for her shingles. The shots are usually for fibro patients but works great for shingles, especially when they are around the face area. I would ask the Dr. about the nerve block shot for fibro. It does not numb any nerve or cause loss of feeling. One shot lasts her almost a year.

Very important. If your prolactin level is high, it may be sign of a benign pitutiary tumor that causes terrible headaches. Ask your Dr. to tell you if your prolactin level is higher then normal and then get a MRI scheduled. Most Drs will say the high level is caused by meds or other factors. It is the one sign of a usually benign tumor.
