Well...I have a numbing on my chin, sometimes tingly, it was never painfull just annoying, like an anastetic wearing off from the dentist so I went to the doc and she said Shingles, but she couldn't be sure. The medicine is very expensive so she told me to sit it out and take vit C. I was so unhappy as I work with a pregnant girl and was really afraid of'infecting' her. So I went to the health shop for an alergy test as I didn't have the trade mark 'whip' of red on my skin ( Shingles comes from the German word for whip) the health shop said I was DANGEROUSLY low in Vit B & C. So she gave them to me and within 10 days I felt great, no tingling and the tiredness gone! So don't take what the doc's say for sure althe time!!!
