Perhaps this isn’t the right discussion thread, but I would like to hear about the experiences of other PWME who took valacyclovir during the first few days of a rash outbreak. I’m in my fifties and, unfortunately, I waited too long to get vaccinated (Shingrix)—and now I’m paying the price ! I’ve just started an antiviral treatment (2 x 500mg, three times daily for 7 days). However, my body sometimes tends to have reactions... I know that every person with ME is different, but I would really appreciate hearing how others experienced it. Thanks for sharing.
I didn't get treatment for my shingles outbreak almost 2 years ago. But I was told by my doctor and pharmacist to wait at least one year after shingles outbreak to get the Shingrix.
