My Son In-law went thru that a couple months ago, he's only 40.
I feel for anyone who has to endure this painful ordeal

Have you looked into any holistic solutions? It has a cause but most doctors will only medicate the symtoms.

I'm 74 and had shingles just after a week in the hosp with pneumonia.That was 15 yrs ago. It visits me daily like a sharp knife being jabbed into my back. It's with you for the rest of your life.

If I understand correctly, it's some leftover junk from the chicken pox virus [S
