My husband came down with shingles and the doctor casually told him he "could" take some medicine (optional) to alleviate the condition. According to my research, you must treat the condition within 72 hours to avoid irrepairable nerve damage, driving some people to suicide! The aspirin/alcohol paste applied to the blisters stopped them dead in their tracks! He got one near his eye when I looked up this remedy and it worked quite rapidly!
