Are you just posting this because you raided your new girl's bathroom and found some medicine called Acyclovir?

Anyone who has ever had Chicken Pox is more susceptible to shingles than the rest of the population.

And lastly, see a chiropractor. Have your spine aligned. The virus lies dormant in the spinal column and adjusting your spine can help force it back to its dormant state sooner.


Interesting because I felt like I had a crick in my neck on the side where the outbreak was. I don't know if that was related or coincidence.

Because the chicken pox virus remains dormant, for the most part, in people. Which is why they say you only get chicken pox one time, which is true in the majority of folks.

However, during periods of high stress and low immune system, the chicken virus can represent as Shingles. So, I think you probably typically would be more susceptible to Shingles only after you've had Chicken Pox.
