I'm not sick but i'm not well.

Everything was going fine until Monday evening as I was getting into my pyjamas and I noticed a little rash on my leg. But not just any old rash, no, this was a rash I recognised. The shingles are back.

This morning I went to the general practitioner who, after speaking to my oncologist, prescribed a normal dose of Aciclovir. I later spoke to the oncology nurse who assured me it was nothing to worry about. It is not a reflection on the cancer coming back. It is just unlucky.

I've caught it a lot earlier this time as well so hopefully I won't end up with patches of discoloured skin that currently grace my rear end.
