It would be ideal if you could write out the points and herbal medicines that you have already tried as well as some diagnostic signs and your overall diagnosis for the patient. This way we don't tell you everything you've already done. You can read our standard acupuncture for shingles page, but I can offer some other ideas once I have the above information from you.
