Hi @steveandsteph, welcome. I moved your message to this existing discussion about oral lichen planus.

- Oral lichen Planus: What home remedies or medications help you?: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/oral-lichen-planus-3/

I did this so you can connect easily with fellow members like @maryz @cmtg @bustrbrwn22 @robinkani @fdixon63 @rashida @artist01 @jshdma @microgirl @chari9 @SusanEllen66, who have experience with OLP.

Steve/Steph, you ask specifically "Can I take Shingles vax with OLP?" That is a very good question and best answered by a physician. You PCP should be able to talk to you about the risks and benefits, and when to get vaccinated.

I believe @chari9 spoke about having OLP and shingles simultaneously and that's rough. I'll be interested to hear what you learn.

How low have you been dealing with oral lichen planus?
