Shingles Vacine/Shot or Not?
I am writing for a friend, she had the Shingles real bad for 3 months, she took valtrex and predisone for 3 months. Now her new doctor feels she should have the Shingles Shot. A friend of mine that is a "doctor" had the Shingles Shot in June and 6 months later he came down with the worst case of Shingles. Go figure. What do you all think?

Shingles: Complications - MayoClinic.com Keep in mind that this is off the internet, so take everything with a grain of salt. Best to get a second opinion, or third, from a doctor. |
