All I can say is I had a bag case of the Shingles about 12 years ago and so I should get the vaccine to keep from getting it again; it does re-occur
but I'm holding off as I am just not sure how it will affect me.
What I can say is....I pray I never get them again...they can be abolutely horrible; thought it was a bug bite so didn't get an antibiotic....lost two weeks from work. But better than a friend of mine who got it at age 60 and after suffering two years, took a medical retirement.
