60 pounds down is fantastic!! Sorry you had to do it the hard way!! I have had shingles 3 different times and it can really knock you down! Add that to the recovery of your sleeve and you were one exhausted soul!! I am glad to hear you are doing better and you have some great days ahead of you!!

I'm glad that you are feeling better, from what my mother says shingles can be worse that surgery, she got them right after she had her brain surgery I felt so bad for her.

oh man....you can get shingles more than once? I had them a year ago and was in a very dark place mentally for the worst two weeks of it. I sure don't want to go through that again. All in all, it took three months to completely clear up and quit stinging. I feel for you having to go through all that at the same time with your sleeve. Thank goodness your medical team brought you out and you were able to kick off some weight.

I'm sorry you had to go through that! I've had shingles once, on the back of my head and that was enough for me! Congrats on the weight loss and best wishes on your recovery!!

Oh my Gosh! You poor thing! Talk about courage!

YES you can get shingles more than once! And Shinglesa are NO FUN!. Get the vaccination when you can.
