yesterdsay I woke up and found a red mark with a small bump in the middle about the size of a quarter on my left side of ribs. It stings a little nothing to painful. After a couple friends looking at it and saying it didn t look like a bug bite i decided to go to urgent care. The first doctor said it looked more like shingles then it did a bug bite. decided to have another doctor come in and look he agree it also looked more like shingles then a bug bite. They prescribed me valtrax and said to call in two days if nothing has changed. I spoke with my husband today who has been traveling in Europe this week about my shingles and he said he had the same type of mark on his torso small place but on his right side. I haven t taken the valtrax yet cause I wasn t sold on their uncertain diagnoses and now I m really uncertain since my husband has an almost identical mark on his torso. What do you think this could be? Could we both of coinedencely gotten shingles? Or is this something else?
