I had shingles twice, the first time around my waist. The second time on my neck. It is such a vicious pain and nothing to fool around with. I hope you saw your doctor and got something for the pain. When I had it on my neck, I had headaches for four months, thought it would never end. Hope I never get it again, but it is possible. There is a shingles vaccine, but its too late if you have had the shingles already. Surely hope you feel better soon.
Just wanted to say that my daughter's MIL had shingles in her eye. I had never heard of that.
