I am concerned. I am a 36 yo Female, currently being treated for Shingles, three days ago, my tongue started hurting, as if i burned it on scalding hot food or drink, even though I had not, and my lymph glands in my neck are all swollen, very tender the touch and painful, and making it difficult to swallow comfortably. I am currently taking Valtrex, Neurotin, and Attarex for the shingles. (Which are in the healing process i.e. all scabbed over), but this is very concerning to me
