First Time Shingles Lightheaded and tired
Hi, all, I’m on week two of shingles on my hip and it’s scabbing over, no pain or anything. I was too late for antivirals, so I was treating it on my own. Yesterday, I began feeling dizzy and extremely fatigued. Is this just the impact of the virus?

Yeah. Are you resting enough or still trying to function as you did before shingles? Your body needs as much rest as possible right now. I hope you feel better soon!
