Miranda, sorry to hear of your shingles, my son had them in Nov and it did
give him alot of pain and took a few months to get over them completely.
Hubby and I recently got the shingles shot, its fairly new. You and my son
are very young to have shingles, usually they say older folks get it. They
won't give my son the shot as he is to young, they say, he doesn't want
them again. Feel better. Nancy
