My immune system is overloaded!

When you say "shingle type pain", do you mean that you have or are showing signs of having shingles?

If you have some welt like sores forming around your waistline and lower back, then you very likely have shingles. If caught early enough, you can take the anti-viral.

If not, it can take a week or two to start feeling better.

You wouldn't be the first person around here to get shingles. If you see any kind of redness around that sore spot at your bra line head straight for your doctor. Shingles is not to be messed with, and as tomorrow is Friday I would not wait until the weekend.

I really just think it's muscular. I may have over reacted. I've been doing that lately......my neck is really sore today. I know I have some degeneration in my spine. Probably just angry muscles pinching a nerve.
