[QUOTE="johnnyxs, post: 1620483, member: 247982"] [FONT=Tahoma]Thanks for your suggestions . I found that Tea Tree Oil helped reduce the pain slightly but in the first 2x moths the pain was excruitiating . My shingles blisters only lasted about 3x months and they are now long gone thank god . The damage to the nerves is permanent unfortunately so I now get random mild pain in the three areas originally blistered every day . Shingles is a Herpes Zoster Virus which apparently lies dormant for most of our lives somewhere in the spine . I am trying to see a link between the occasional flareup and other aspects of my health like BS levels and Liver etc . I know I have Liver Pancreas and Gall bladder issues from past issues so I have had quite a few inconclusive ultra sound scans over the years . I also rarely produce bile judging by the pale sand coloured stools I pass. it might be an idea to request a Liver function test from your health centre (ALP , ALT etc if you haven't had one done recently the Liver not only converts carbs into Glucose it also converts starch into fats which it deposits around the body. If your body has a lot of stored fats then the Liver probably concentrates on converting starch into glucose . If we have some large muscles like quads and glutes from regular exercise then the liver will store lots of glucose in the muscles . If like me you are over weight with lots of fat storage and have very little muscle left, then the poor Liver has nowhere to store glucose which raises serum BS levels . I believe that the increase I have seen in BS levels over the past 4 months is due to putting on 1x stone in weight and stopping regular exercise at the same time due to a back problem. I am going to start reducing my carbs , increasing fats and going for a 20 minute power walk every morning up one of our local steep hills to build some muscle and get the blood and lymph circulating again. I'll monitor my blood pressure and BS levels and keep a food diary and see what happens.....! I'm predicting that my fasting overnight BS levels are going to go down from the current 8 nmol/L to around 5.6nmol/L [/FONT] [/QUOTE]
