Smile Shingles!

I went to the doctor today because I thought I had spider bites on my stomach, and they've been there since a week ago, and the doctor said that's it's shingles! I thought that was for old people! Oh, well, another chapter of my life! I just hope it doesn't get worse. It isn't too painful, it's just burning and tingling. The doctor put me on a antiviral med and some cream, so hopefully this will nip it fast. Never a dull moment is there?
