at present you are a nuisance to your friends and a disgrace to your country's legislature

So far, this appears to be a quite mild case of shingles, from what I've been able to gather. It's annoying and worrying, but it hasn't become more than slightly and intermittently painful. I'm not sure if I'm extraordinarily lucky, or if I'm just young enough to make mild symptoms much more likely. We are also having a cold snap again, though it's not really all that cold, only a little bit below the freezing point and a little bit more snow.

Glad you are not suffering too much.

If you can call it mild, you're very lucky.

So glad you are OK!

That’s great! Is shingles a one and done disease?

[cimorene]

Nope, if you've ever had chicken pox, you can get shingles again and again if you haven't had the vaccine!

Yikes.
