I agree. If I'm not mistaken, I read the following: If you get shingles and it goes away, the chance of it coming back is about 5%.
And someone warned about stress? That's right, stress can bring it on. And stress can bring it back again and again.
It wouldn't hurt to practice a healthy lifestyle (i.e.,get some exercise, good sleep and eat healthful foods etc.). Depression and stress can be the result of living a poor lifestyle. Especially as we get older, we need to be more careful.
