| Post subject: | Cojak: Good point of Pastors I have known AND have you ever had Shingles? |
| I just wanted to mention something I have noticed in successful pastors. Successful in ministering and in a living church. I was reminded of this by having Bro. Powers as the interim pastor at Wildwood. He pastored Inverness when we attended. I notices almost every service he took time to comment on one or two of the members from the pulpit in prelims or in the sermon. It reminded me of my dad, Bro. Carter and a couple others did that. My dad always included the youth and kids names from the pulpit.I never made a practice of it, but it would not hurt to make a list and mention everyone over a period of a year, it would bless some folk to know they are noticed by their pastor.Now a question, I was a builder, so when my wife notified our sons that I had shingles, both of the wanted them delivered as soon as possible. One of the Acts participants sent me a joke. I appreciate the levity, but what I wondered was if you have had Shingles, how long did they last?And what did you do other than SMILE!

| I have about 24-25 squares on my roof. Actually my wife had them about 20 years ago. Don't know what she took. But I do know they were a PAIN Recorded Sermons @ www.pastorwiley.com |

| It is on my head and around my right eye. I did go to the Doctor and she prescribed the meds and recommended I see the eye dr. immediately. I did.No problem with the eye so far, but come back in 3 weeks.The right eye is practically swollen closed at present.We are near Disney, I thought of getting a job as a Pirate for a few weeks.I am fortunate, my body has a natural resistance(tolerance) to pain. My wife says I am morbid. I do all dental work with out meds. except once on removing a wisdom tooth, the dentist slipped the needle in, said it would hurt him without it. LOL One dentist kept stopping a root canal saying are you sure?Anyway I am very fortunate in that area, it isn't my doing. I can tell it hurts, my biggest problem with shingles so far, is a BAD headache that comes and goes with it.We are taking the entire family on a cruise in mid December and am hoping it is GONE by then. It is still 34 days, that should do it, right? Some facts but mostly just my [email protected]://shipslog-jack.blogspot.com/ |

| I had shingles about 20 years ago. At the time I was under a lot of stress and that probably had a lot to do with it. I noticed some unusual feelings a few weeks before I a diagnosed with them. My skin was tender on my lower stomach near where a patch of blisters showed up. My side hurt. Sleeping became difficult.I went to the doctor who told me I had shingles. He took a blood test to confirm it. He gave me prednisone and an anti-viral drug. He told me to go home and stay in bed and take it easy for the next two weeks as if I had a bad flu.With rest and the two prescriptions I started to improve quickly. Within two or three weeks I was doing fairly well. However, for years afterward the same nerves that were inflamed from shingles would flare up from time to time. Advil helped a lot. |

| Thanks dude, that sorta describes my situation. I am taking the same prescription, so I am glad to hear that. I also got a series of antibiotic STUFF!I have 34 days before going to sea, I hope it is better.... I appreciate all the information and comments. I am doing well but just in the last couple hours I have a big soft sack beneath my eye. I won't do it, but I have an inclination to stick a needle in it. Mama says NO WAY pretty loud.
