Prescribed Valtrex, nurse suggested Ibuprofen, not naproxen. Going to see PCP in the morning, but this has been a horrid week!

   Pain from shingles can be very severe. Anything to ease that type of pain can be something which causes drowsiness. Lyrica may help w/pain also or Neurontin, but both can cause drowsiness. She could take it at bedtime and at least hope for some rest.
