I had shingles many,many yrs ago;don't think I want the vaccine,although it's
recommended after age 60.

Well, I seem to be the only one taking the shingles vaccine.My doc assured
me there was no danger. He has been very protective with me and I
trust him.Also, my husband had shingles 5-6 years ago and I am the one who
gets TM.

Very shortly after coming home from the hospital my doc wanted me to get the
shingles vaccine. He said I had enough problems.

I'm with you, Candy... I've been told as long as I don't get any "live" virus,
it "should be okay".

Regina, I also refuse the annual flu shot! My general physcian every year asks

I just don't want anything that may upset my immune system!

Carol, John Hopkins hospital use to have a whole list but they have changed
their website. They had a list of 13 or so viruses and shinles was one of
them. Through out my lifetime, I had had 10 of the 13.
I had shingles about a year before TM.
I did find this list:

Carol, Shingles is one of the viruses listed as possible causes for TM. I
refuse any vaccines only because so many may cause a flair up. That's just my
2 cents.

What every ones opinion on getting the vaccine for shingles? I'm 60 and last
week for my annual physical, my doctor recommended that I get the shingles
vaccine. I didn't get, because I wanted to ask the TM group and the medical

It's the same thing for anti-depressants, ADHD, anti-schitzophrenics or

Betty there should be no shame in taking anti-depressant meds. I needed them
when I first came home from the hospital. I don’t think I currently need them.

I believe the steroids are only used at the "acute" stage,or when you have a
symptom of recurrance. Then they are used in high doses IV;you do not take them
long term for tm. They are used to reduce swelling,etc.

I was always very impatient before tm. Now I am more relaxed and
