I have been feeling unwell for a few days and developed a rash on my back. I went to see my GP on Wednesday and she has diagnosed Shingles. I am now on medication and am starting to feel a bit better - not so much pain now. My OB is on holidays until Monday (lucky him) and i am booked in to have a caesarean on tuesday (breech bub). I just had an app with my GP again today and she has told me they most likely won't do the caeser on tuesday now, but postpone it until i am better.. All the imformation i have on shingles is that it can take weeks to go away. Has anyone had shingles before and does anyone have any idea of what they will do?

Thanks - Em
