Hi Dana,
Thank you, I will definitely check out your earlier post about gut issues. Good to hear the shingles vaccine protected you so you had only minor symptoms after lowering your immunity through the anti-rejection drug protocol! I had been contemplating getting the shingles vaccine (right after I got the Covid vaccine) because I had chickenpox when I was young and knew I was at risk, now, for shingles. Before I had a chance to get the shingles vaccine, I came down with shingles. Not fun!! Don't wish to go through an attack like that again. It sounds to me like the shingles vaccine will do for me what the Covid vaccine and boosters do. If I get Covid, it will be a milder case; if I get shingles, it will be a milder case, too. That is comforting to know!!
I do feel blessed but have not completed the process of evaluation, yet. After I finish, my daughter needs to go through the same evaluation and we'll have to learn the results before any celebrating!
Thank you for offering whatever help you can...and for your blessings :o)
