What's this?

Got shingles in 2016 at < 40 years old


Started on back of my head as if I had fallen and hit my head. Moved to top of my head. Got blisters on forehead and side of my nose, now scars, kinda gotten better. Worst pain was about every other minute felt pain in back of eye as if getting stabbed. Thankfully I got thru it only needing one mega Advil pill every four hours. I had to do eye drops for 3 weeks to prevent dendrites. I’ll be getting vaccine once I hit recommended age.
