Hey everyone ...it's been a long time since I got on and talked with anyone...I'm still fighting this ...but I had some strange things happening and wondered if anyone else had had this....

I've gotten red watery-type blisters to come up on my fingers and toes....they are very painful and seem to be lasting a while. They come up over night and have been lasting over a week as of right now. They start out small and get bigger with time.

Has anyone else had this and what can be done if anything?

could it be shingles? Never had them, but heard about them.

I'd contact your LLMD about this.

Have you seen the dr? It does sound like it MIGHT be shingles. But you don't want us guessing for you!

Welcome back! Long time no see! [hi]

I've heard of shingles...but I'm not sure...I'll do some research....I just got back from visiting my doctor but at the time I saw him they were just on my hands ....and hadn't gotten as big as they are now....

I just was hoping someone knew what this was...it's not fun....
