     Dang, that ain't fun at all! :(  sorry to hear you got that.  You might try avoiding eating any nuts, peanuts, cashews, etc.  as they contain an ingredient, called arginine, which is good for you if you don't have the shingles, chickenpox, or any of the herpes family viruses, as the virus feeds off of it.  Also take about three to four thousand mg of Lysine two or three times a day, it will lessen the severity, and speed recovery.  Also as a daily supplement of a couple of thousand mg a day, will help to lessen the chance of return visits.  Stress, and or fatigue can cause your immune system to drop, and any and all opportunistic bugs to come visit.  I hope you get better in time to go hunting.  Now you have an idea what people with fibro myalgia go through with the pain, except, theirs is in the bone also.  You hurt all over. I wish you the best in your recovery.
