      I have had them 2 times, my grandmother had them prob 8 times. stress can bring it on just like a feverblister! they hurt and suck. meds will help make it go away.

      I had the chicken pox when I was 3 or 4.. 10 yrs ago and 6 yrs ago I had the shingles. I don't know where I got them from. But because of my health history and no immune system I had them twice. It sucks and they hurt and they itch !.

      They make a vaccine for it, and if your family members have had issues everyone should look into it. Shingles can have serious long term complications.

      My father has postherpetic neuralgia from shingles so bad he is prescribed methadone. It's been almost two years and still no signs of improvement. He can no longer work and can barely function. Trying now for SS disability. He's only 56.

      Never had it, but i hear that the irritation and itching is soo bad that you wish for death. It is very uncomfortable to where you can not even tolerate it.
