A little under the weather

A few day ago I was raking bags and bags of pine needles and I noticed this aching sensation in my left shoulder. I didn't really worry about it since I thought it was just a bug bite, but over the past few days the pain has become much worse and has spread to my chest. I went to the doctor this morning, and even though we are still awaiting the tests from the blood work, the doctor thinks I have shingles. While shingles are not as bad as appendicitis, they are far from fun. Hopefully they go away soon.
