Shingles and the after-effects can last for years - some people never get over the nerve pain. Jane I have a friend who has had them for over 5 years. She has had all manner of treatment but is still bothered with the burning pain. Believe it is called postherpectic neuralgia. I spoke with her this week and she tells me that frozen gel paks help her most. Edith
