My husband Ron got shingles twice and it was brought on by a very stressful situation (the first time he saved a woman from getting killed by her ex boyfriend. The second was brought on by his latest cancer recurrence). He talked to his Doctor about getting the shot and the Doctor advised against it. According to his Doctor the shot has not been proven to keep a person from not getting shingles again. Anyway that's what he said.
