Hi Dr. Grief, thanks for being available. I have nerve pain on my skin and have been checked out by my physician and will see a neurologist. I also am working with a naturopathic doctor who suspects my pain is from a virus similar to shingles. I'm looking for a better understanding of how to get rid of a viral infection if this is the cause. Is there any research available to help me get rid of this pain, e.g., similar to treating the pain of shingles? Thanks for your help, Debra
