This is not a positive blog. Sorry. I am so sick and starting to panic. I started having pain in my arm on Saturday, but there was no physical evidence of anything wrong. The pain spread through my arm, chest, and back. It felt like my skin was bruised and burned. Yesterday I started getting a rash, and immediately went to my doctor.

SHINGLES. Fucking shingles.

Basically adult chicken pox, but way worse, far more painful. I was put on treatment right away and thought I'd be fine. I went about my day today, trying not to think about it. Just now I really looked at the blisters (I know, gross). They are getting so bad, they're spreading. I'm freaking out. I don't want it to get any worse. It looks horrible, feels even worse, and will most likely scar. I'm already so self conscious about my skin anyway, this is not making things better. Fuck.

I don't know what to do
