Brian: Diagnosed with ShinglesBy admin / July 10, 2020 Brian 7-10-20 Personal Experience: Shingles & Grafex During a stressful time (I was moving and renovating), I started feeling sharpdiscomfort on my lower back. It was easily irritated, especially when I was workingand burned like fire. Soon, tiny painful blisters formed and began to wrap around mywaist. I finally saw my doctor and was diagnosed with shingles. Of course, he immediately offered a cocktail of pharmaceuticals — from antivirals,nerve pain treatment and generic painkillers. Sticking with my personal philosophy to avoid prescription meds, when I declined. Shingles is no joke. Many find it completely debilitating – and without question, I felt it. Because I had applied Grafex to bug bites and other abrasions with success, Idecided I would apply it to my shingles. The relief was immediate. The pain and itching subsided, the redness faded away and I was able to continuewith my daily work and leisure activities with only minor discomfort. After applyingthe Grafex twice or more a day, the blisters became less painful, less deep and lessfrequent. Soon, the only problem spot that remained was on my waistline, irritatedby clothing. I focused on these spots at night and they were gone before I knew it. Grafex is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Reducing the swelling from theshingles virus helped me heal with less pain and faster than anticipated and predictedby my doctor — all without prescriptions.Highly recommended.
