Mine was cured homoeopathically (I know placebo) after horrendous treatment from the GP and this is how I found out that I was allergic to penicillin. The whole thing seemed to itch more when warm.

Yes, mine is more itchy when warm
Its starting to subside now, although I think it will be quite a few more days before I start to feel normal again.

Must have a very mild version. Appointment at the doctors on the same day. She very quickly diagnosed shingles, and prescribed anti-virals.
Only a very small patch on my chest, first noticed three days ago when it became very itchy. No pain at the moment, but just a slight insect-bite type itchiness on the affected area.
Feel fine.
