Hubbys got the sniffels bad, so keeping an eye on him, don't think it's anything, just watching.
My brother was home last week from Cali. and what he thought was posion ivy has ended up being shingles, we had a family get togther before he left so hope no one catches that, mom had them almost 2 yrs ago and they were painful .

Oh Dear, shingles can be soooo bad. If you've never had them, you can get a vaccination to prevent them. If you've had them, then the vaccine won't help. It's supposed to be for persons over age 65, but I talked my PCP into giving it to me since I have FREQUENT cold sores, which is the same virus that caused shingles. Hopefully, I will never get them!
