Diagnosis: shingles.

I’m not convinced this recurring hot spot in my leg isn’t vascular, though. 

The EMT who saw me at urgent care thinks it’s nerve flare up from shingles virus. I have no other vascular symptoms. 

I hate that the earliest my primary care physician can see me is next month.

If it is shingles..you need the drug to keep the rash from getting worse..They say it is best if you get start treatment within 48 hours of the rash appearing...

Yeah getting into a doctor...especially YOUR doc can be a pain...When I had the Shingles my doc was on a medical leave of absence and retired shortly after...I saw 2 different doctors and an urgent care person while I had my shingles...:runcirclsmiley:  If it is the shingles...get the shots when you are done...if it isn't the shingles...get the damn shots ASAP.....
