Since my infection has remained only on the left side of my vagina, and since my body is behaving resistant to the
acyclovir, or rather since the symptoms are still intense after a few days, the doctor is now suspecting Shingles. It does make more sense.
I did not realize this was rare - (in the vaginal area)
What I want to know is you listed symptoms for the herpes but not for the shingles. Can you describe more? It's more than itching for sure.
