Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Nope - doesn't help. I get shingles and take high doses of iodoral. What does help is L-Lysine. If you have liquid lugol's it helps topically on the location of the outbreak. I think I read Virgin Coconut Oil does as well. Steph Iodoral for Shingles? Hi,My 18 year old daughter is in the Navy and is recovering from Shingles. She is having some muscle tremors causing her to go sleepless at night. My thoughts are that since this is viral Iodine would help her tremendously. Does anyone have any feedback on this? All advice is appreciated greatly!She is home right now for the holidays so I am trying to help her.Merry Christmas!Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 Have you ever had a problem with your muscles twitching? Not sure if it is being caused by the meds or the shingles... > > Nope - doesn't help. I get shingles and take high doses of iodoral. What does help is L-Lysine.

Guest guest Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Whenever she begins to relax all of her muscles as in going to sleep, she feels almost an electrical current traveling down her left arm. The rash began on her left side back. She had a huge lump beneath her shoulder blade than the rash began. She was unaware of the fact it could be shingles so she did not seek medical help until the pain was excruciating 1 1/2 weeks after the rash appeared. She later found out the lump was a lymph node full of the infection. The rash has almost cleared now but she cannot calm the muscles to sleep unless she takes her Vicaten med (sp?). > > > > Nope - doesn't help. I get shingles and take high doses of > iodoral.
