Halliburton afflicted with shingles
- Thread starter Wunky
- Start date
I got them on left side of my face and neck last year and lost all movement on that side of my face.. Thought had a stroke and called ambulance.. Hospital said i was fine.. Took almost 6 mths before started getting movement back on that side of my face.. Finally got all fully back after about 8 mths..
We really celebrating someone having shingles because they made a joke tied to UK and Arkansas?
It's sports, guys. Have a tiny bit of perspective.

I think we can be bigger than this one. Shingles sucks no matter what you think about sports or politics.
It’s a joke, guy. Get the stick out of your butt.
I recently got the Shingles vaccine. Had to get 2 a couple of months apart. Made my arm feel like it had been in a bar fight without me. But I'm told Shingles sucks in a big way.
Also, studies have shown the vaccine can lower your risk of Alzheimers .
Also, it's a jerk move to celebrate sickness in anyone.

Let me tell you,, you cannot sleep on whatever body part that they're on.. Its like fkn gasoline burning you up.. Then they itch like hell and digging makes em worse.. It sucked lol..
Yeah they gave my mom oxy for it. You know it’s bad when doctors nowadays perscribe anything like that.
I would appreciate it if you could be more inclusive to all the people groups that participate in this forum.
True story: When I moved to my new community I saw a billboard that had the message: "Need Shingles?" with a phone number. I immediately thought to myself, "Good grief! Why would anyone need that horrible disease. I had them. They were horrible!" Then I realized that it was a roofing company! I guess that was my senior moment.
You should never, ever, EVER make light of someone else's health. So allow me to do it for you, sir.
Where did Halliburton meet his wife?
At a shingles bar.

Got them in a combat environment, had no clue initially what the hell was happening. I was no **** given the highest level of OXY with six refills, IIRC, one prescription was three months, never took a single pill.
That’s funny right there. Like a kids chickenpox party lol.
Nothing like someone telling you to stop taking things so seriously whilst not realizing they are actually the one doing that. Zero self-awareness.
That is a crazy story. I have no doubt shingles are absolutely miserable, especially during combat. But that just goes to show most doctors are just drug dealers anymore, and absolutely negligent/complicit in people’s addictions.
Yeah, his exact words to me “hey brother, I’ve hooked you up” as he gave me the prescription, he meant well, obviously, though great way to get someone addicted.
I knew three people who had it before the Shringrx vaccine. They were each in awful shape for a few months. In the eyes is the worst.
Anyone who's had chickenpox & eligible for the vaccine - age 50 & older I believe - is playing with fire by not getting the shots. My reactions weren't as severe as your describe, but there was a good deal of soreness. But so what.
Several years ago there was a guy on here who stated that kneeling during the anthem was just as bad as drunk driving. I will put this up there with that level of bad take.
If youre able to resist the itching it heals up ans youre fine in 1/2 the time . My uncle had it but hes got that old school will power and didn't itch and healed fine . Known folks that itched like a bandit and still got the scars - easier said than done but if you can resit the itch its so much better an faster.
I think im immune as I was immune to Chicken Pox. Was around Chivken pox alot as a kid with my gamily and never got it . I think both are related but unsure.

He's young to be having shingles. I was in my 40's the first time and in my 60's the second time.
Good for you. I found my best friend dead of a fentanyl overdose March 2020. He thought he was taking Oxy. I got hooked on them from a doctor and damn near ruined my life in just two years of taking them.
Sorry to hear that, lost people close to me in the same way, drugs in this country are out of control.
Figure since i got them last year,, no need getting the vaccine now
.. Uncle had the shot couple years ago and couldn't use his arm hardly for 3 days..
You'll not be fine if get them on the face like i did,, lol.. Straight up gave me bells palsy for 3/4 of a year..
I've done pills most of my life.. Only did one OC once.. A buddy had an 80 and i had gram white stuff.. Made 2 lines with each and done them together.. Was the best buzz i ever had in 52 years.. I said nope,, not doing that pill ever again.. That was back in 90s when an 80mg was like $120-$140 each..
Damn. I'm glad you got off them. I was getting OXY 40's and people would offer 60 bucks, and females would offer themselves. I was so addicted to them I never sold one nor took advantage of a female, not once. A DUI got me sent to rehab and I never did one again. I won't even take any in the emergency room when I got hit head on by a drunk driver in 2022 and broke my arm in two places, one a compound fracture, separated my shoulder, broke my wrist and needed 40+ stitches. Proud you recognized it from the start. There were 18 seniors on my high school team. 3 are dead from overdoses. Not to mention the dozen or so I went to school with. I graduated in 2002.
