I know several that have had them and it doesn't look like fun at all.  I would love to get the shot but they say that I'm too young yet.

I heard the shot is not 100% effective and sometimes brings on the shingles?

Bobby,
Really sorry to hear about your problem. I know that it is a miserable situation. All I can do is offer the hope that it will get better with time. That's not much consolation now but keep that in mind now when you're feeling down. The vaccination is not 100% effective but does help to cut down on the chances of developing long term problems. You also need to have boosters every few years to maintain its effect. Hopefully you're past the worst part and can look forward to feeling like you old self soon.

I had the shingles back in September of 92, I was only 29. My youngest daughter was just born and I was whooped. I had huge blisters on my back. Very sick. My left arm ached and tingled months if not over a couple years after the fact. Every time my back felt itchy I thought they were coming back......
No fun at all. I have not thought about it in quite a while but know they may reappear.
Good luck with your illness.

Both my Dad and Grandfather had them.  I had the Chicken Pox when I was little.  I reckon that it's only a matter of time till I get them.  I pray that I don't.

Bob,  Hope you feel better.  From seeing family members with the shingles I would not want them.  I got the shot.
