Shingles

One month after I had finished my course of chemo and radiation, I ended up with shingles, meningitis and thrush in the ER. Three doctors in the ER told me I had chiggar bites. When my oncologist came in and asked to see the chiggar bites, he told me I had a severe case of shingles. They were on my bc side under the breast around to the middle of my back. Between the headache pain and shingle pain, I was hospitalized on morphine for 10 days. My heart goes out to anyone who has had shingles -- they are very painful. Love and blessings, Paula
