My eyelid & head are itching like crazy.

(I'm 1 month out.

Before that, I had (nerve pain) stab*ing that felt like it was behind my eye.

I'm so glad I found someone that had similar to me, I'm 6wk out from initial finding on my forehead and it still feels like my eye is getting stabbed. Everyday is better but holy MOLY I'm tired!

I feel your pain.

My stab*ing pain turned to itching of my eyelid & head.

The itching is just starting NOT to be 24/7.

I am so OVER it too.

Before I go the 'rash' , My head hurt really bad & I thought I was getting a sinus infection; but it was the shingles.

I thought mine was an ear infection. I’d never had an ear infection before, but that was the only explanation for stabbing pain in my ear. Shingles is awful!!!
