Colette, keep us posted on whether you get it or not. I'm reading on various websites that it's not approved for those under 60, and I'm wondering if that means NO ONE under 60 gets it. Or if maybe YOU would be the exception because of your medical history with it.wasColette wrote:I am 47 and have had the herpes zoster outbreak on my left forehead area around 5 times. It always starts with a sore, tingling pimple that grows quickly into a very painful oozing outbreak. It usually has occurred at moments of extreme stress when my body's resistance is down. Now that I know how it feels in the very first stages, I call my doctor and get a prescription for Acylovir. I take it as soon as I can and it really does nip it in the bud. It's good to know there is a vaccine out there and I will definitely ask my doctor about it.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU!!!!!!
