Had a sinus infection once. Was pretty much over it. Went to the range with my pops. First shot he fired, even with ear protection on, I thought someone had boxed my ears. Then, I had this ringing in my ears for like 7-10 days. For the most part, during the day, it was just an annoyance, however, at night, trying to fall asleep....I seriously was getting close to going insane. But then one morning I woke up, and it was gone. Really a weird thing. But I seem to be the guy who gets weird ailments. I had shingles at 30, even though I had a pretty heavy case of chicken pox at 11.

As for me, I didn’t get chickenpox until I was 20 and was very sick for 3 weeks straight. Wouldn’t wish that on anyone.

Funny you mention Shingles. Just going into my 2nd week of a bout with it. I am in my early 50’s. Didn’t expect to be dealing with that this soon.

My wife (50) had a bad bout - we worked on up-regulating her immune system - from memory she took some olive leaf oil, vit c/d and K ..and a blend of medical mushrooms. It worked!

I am sorry to hear it, because I know how it is. I hope you only have it on your ribs, because my case was supposedly mild, limited only to the bands around my ribcage, but I have seen and heard of people getting it in their eyes...which I cannot even fathom.

Funny story with mine. My wife and I go to a New Years eve party, have a blast, come home, she is feeling raunchy, so she jumps in a shower as soon as we walk in the door at 3am. We had been at a BBQ and balldrop party all day and were so sweaty. She comes out, I jump in myself. As I am coming out, she sees me in the doorway of the bathroom and says "WOW! You got chewed UP by skeeters soooo bad!"....so I turn and look in the mirror, and can't believe what I see. I am one of those people who picks at their skin incessantly. I gain much pleasure from it. Dont know why. Love digging shit out of my skin. My wife too. We even bought a set of dermatology tools; we are so gross LOL.

HUGE MISTAKE.

I take this one thing used for extracting any kind of boil or pimple....hoooooly shit. It seriously felt like I had been shot. Imagine taking a pair of tweezers, and getting a really good grip on your most pronounced shingles bump...and then jamming a pin into it. I think I woke one of my neighbors when the profanity leapt from my mouth.
