I'm seeing the GP tonight. Does anyone know if I'll be able to see my three month old grandson. The blistery rash came about two days ago. Feeling really sick today x

As far as I remember Caza it is possible to contract shingles from someone who has chicken pox but not the other way around.

Better check with the GP though.

I hope you feel better soon. Shingles is not pleasant at all.

Thanks for the reply, I think it's dangerous for pregnant women to be around shingles? I'm not being allowed in the waiting room. Hope it's just an allergy maybe not dont want to come off the meds. Oh dear x

I was told by friends that it should not go all the way round your body and meet to complete the circle. i dont know how true it is.

sending best wishes and hope you get some relief. sending hugs also
