Well it's time for a change

Well our trip north only lasted 1 week instead of 6 After having a pain in my back for a coupla days ( putting it down to traveling for 2 days straight) then developing an itch in the same area & pain increasing I went to a all hours doctor ( early Sunday morning) to find out I had shingles.I have allergies to most common pain relievers ( codeine, opiates etc) so finding relief wasn't easy. 
I decided if I was going to be in pain & not able to do anything it was time to be at home where I wouldn't disturb or burden my in-laws. 2 days of excruciating pain in the car ( sorry the rash had taken over my left shoulder blade area with pain thru to the chest, breast, armpit & top of arm) to get home where Peter has been a great help & carer.
It is 6 weeks later I have had a various combinations of medications the last one prescribed yesterday but the rash is nearly gone but the pain continues to make life uncomfortable.
Before I got really sick I had enrolled for a class with Linda Baldock at A Scrappe Angels Heaven so I dosed up really well and attended having Robyn next to me to help I made it thru & with a few finishing touch still to come I am pleased I went & I will post photos when it is complete.
