Although this is not related to breast cancer I will comment on your situation. I hope you sought some treatment for the "shingles" at the very outset as there is some very beneficial treatment available. The residual pain may last from weeks to months to even years. Good luck with your appointment at the Pain Clinic ... I'm sure there will be some measure of help for your pain.
