It is now 2019 and have gone did with another infection, I am curious, as I had a right mastectomy in 2017 and since then have had a right chest infection, over and over again.
I have had since October 2 Chest infections, treated with Antibiotics , and shingles in the eye again in December.
I am shattered and very tired it so difficult trying to look after yourself on your own and been 73, I haven't got the stamina, to be honest I have had enough, my kids aren't supportive, my son said not again Mum, it's become embarrassing

I had shingles during chemotherapy for breast cancer and found putting Manuka honey on the affected area eased the pain .

I wonder if shingles is a side effect of cancer, being under so much stress, just lately, I have recently recovered from Breast Cancer.
My husband died in 2015, breast cancer in 2016, now in 2017 shingles, I hope this is the end of problems and 2018 is a better year
