This little piggy went to the market; this little piggy stayed home

I am a walking virus magnet. I have some kind of viral infection along the nerve that passes from the middle of my back, under my arm, and to my right breast. That half of my body has been in constant pain since last Sunday and the agony has finally climbed to my ear.

I hurt; I'm exhausted; I'm glad I'm not in the advanced stages of breast cancer, which my overactive imagination was telling me was the likely cause of this most recent torment.

Oral antibiotics, ear drops, antibiotic pomade, pain-relievers...*sigh*  I don't think I'll be going to the market tomorrow.

In other news, does anyone else use Mozilla Firefox 3.03? And if so, have you had problems editing or making LJ posts these past few days?

If it's Shingles, as the doc seems to think, then 3-5wks is the usual duration of the pain, but sometimes it's lasts for months. :(

Ugh.. just... ugh. :-(
