[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've had shingles twice and have looked but found no research on whether it makes sense to get the vaccine. Clearly I already carry the virus. [/quote] My cousin had lingering symptoms from a shingles case that flared up sometimes. She says getting shringix actually made these go away. Everyone who has had chicken pox has had the virus, so that's not the point.[/quote] If you had shingles and received the antiviral, you are good. It wouldn’t hurt to get the vaccine, too. Varicella can hit in different ways. It can return as Ramsey -hunt or shingles even if you had chicken pox. There is similar findings in those who take valtrex antiviral for herpes. Lowers dementia risk. [/quote]
