No, shingles is not the cause. My symptoms are a result of chronic latent
lyme which lay dormant for many years when I was protected with a consistant
high
progesterone levels when nursing and preganant for 23 years. 4 years ago it
invaded the musces,ligaments and affected circulation,heart,nervous system and
the entire musculoskeletal system. It was after 34 doctors and practitioners,
12 misdiagnosis's that I insisted on a lyme test that was positive along with
other co-infections. I have since then spoken to many with a similar history.
