I don't know about the benefit of the shot, its good to ask your doc about that, but I did have the shingles after my brain surgery when my immune system was at its lowest, and it was extremely painful even tho we were lucky to catch it early. Like Pat, PGB, if I'm having a stressful time, I still get very serious pain right through my chest into my back.

GG, yes, they are giving the shots along with flu shots over in colony, I already have my appt set up. I forget the link that I used to make the appt. If I find it, I'll repost it. My appt is in late Sept.

Champ, please give your wife our good wishes and we hope she feels better real soon. I'm sorry she had to go through that awful ordeal.
