@srobinet, have you had shingles before? Have you talked to your oncologist about getting the shingles vaccine and when would be the best time during treatment?

@colleenyoung I have not had Shingles before. I have not started treatment yet as surgery will be the first step. I got my first Shingles vaccine about 2 weeks ago and am supposed to get the second one toward the end of March. I imagine by that time I will be in treatment so I definitely will check with my Oncologist.
