Just got back from Urgent Care and am waiting for my meds to be ready.   This morning when I woke up I had the strangest rash on my face.   I had a rash from the top of my brow to under the chin but the funny thing is was only on the left side of my face.   It was like someone drew a line down the middle of my face.    So it turns out that in addition to an ear infection with lots of blood behind the ear drum I now have shingles and boy do they hurt.    No rhyme or reason why I got them other than the fact that the dr. think my ear infection irritated some nerve endings.   Hopefully the meds will help the pain and more importantly make me sleep.   So if I am MIA you know why.    <br /><br />Time to put some hot compresses on my face and relax for awhile.     I&#39;ll try and check in later.
