Pro tip: if you have Shingles and your leg starts to turn red, RUN DO NOT WALK to the doc and get antibiotics right away. Don't be like me and think, "duh, all that swelling is from the steroids." It's NOT.

I would post a pic here, but I don't want any of you to lose your most recent meals.

As you've now discovered, the hard way, cellulitis is both no fun, and serious business. Be prepared for the possibility of a life of support stockings. They ARE your friends when dealing with leg swelling.
