ouch

Well after a 3 hour wait to see a doctor (actually a physician assistant) my diagnosis was confirmed yes I have Shingles. Very painful on my left side under the armpit and upper chest and back. Anyway had to pay up front for the visit and my insurance provider says I will get the money back eventually. Also need to go to the pharmacy to get 3 presciptions filled, an antiviral drug, a antiviral creme and pain killers. I was also told to keep cool and dry, which considering it is in the 80's today and forcasted to go up to the 90's by the end of the week, could be difficult.
Guess I will have to crank up the air conditioner. Off to find a place to eat lunch then get my presciptions filled and head back the 25 miles to the campground.
