60+ years ago I had chicken pox while still in diapers. So, a couple of years ago I got the Zostavax vaccine for shingles. Two weeks ago, acting on the advice of my doctor, I got the first dose of the Shingrix vaccine (a more effective vaccine). I should be doubly covered, right? Right???
So riddle me this - how the hell am I the unlucky SOB who has now been diagnosed with shingles????
On the left side of my back, at the waistband...annoying as all get out. Makes me grateful that I'm retired and don't have to put on clothes unless I'm going somewhere...
First TMI about sitting around naked.
Second, I had an uncle who had chicken pox three times. Just never became immune to it.
