[quote=Anonymous]I realized I had shingles on the first day of my vacation, while I was driving south. I was unable to get on antivirals quickly because I did not realize the importance of that and was not near my doctor. I could have gone to urgent care but didn't know to do that. I got antivirals about a week after the rash appeared, but that's pretty much too late to get much benefit. I was on vacation for two weeks and the shingles was pretty annoying. It got worse as each day went by, itchy rash on my thigh and leg pain all the way through my foot. It would wake me up at night. That lasted for almost two months, long past when I was back from vacation. My vacation only involved visiting relatives, not going to theme parks or hanging out on the beach, so it was barely okay.[/quote]
