How would your system over react? I'm usually the first to say no to
vaccines, but where shingles are concerned, doesn't this become a
quality of life issue? I'd probably risk another relapse over the idea
of getting shingles.

I have had Shingles twice since TM onset. Mine were only slightly
painful and very itchy. My physicians will not give me the shingles
vaccine, or any other vaccine for that matter.
They fear it may make my immune system over react again.

Has anybody out there had shingles? If so, how did it affect you?
The doctor was puzzled, saying my rash looked like shingles,
but the pain description didn't sound typical. I have jolts
of pain rather thanm deep, constant pain. The rash is on my
waist. I wonder if T.M. makes things different. My face is
quite flushed.
After consulting another doctor who confirmed shingles, the
first one prescribed medication.
