If you had chickenpox as a child (which pretty much all of us did) this shit is lurking in your system, and it can manifest itself at any time.
After he described the hell he was going through dealing with it, I got the vaccine for it the next day. Simply put, **** THAT.

My mrs is dealing with them now. Let's just say, if you haven't gotten the shingles vaccine, you should RUN to your nearest pharmacy and get it. She's been in agony for 3 weeks.
