I've had shingles 9 times in 3 years and I'm 41. I've had multiple tests and showing nothing. Has anyone else had them this many times?

Shingles
Hi everyone, I had terrible pain in my left hip and down the thigh to just above knee last week and was worried in case it was to do with my hip replacement. However on Sunday I noticed a crop of lumpy red spots on my hip which were itchy. Called the surgery Monday morning and got a call back from GP

Food Tolerance Tests?
Does anyone out there have any opinion on food tolerance tests for helping the inflammation of Lupus? Are they worth the money? Have they helped? I have just read an article on how they helped someone with Lyme's Disease. Is it just a silly question? Any advice or discussion would be great/helpful.

Shingles- Shingrix for immuno compromised
I have been able to get the non live Shingles vaccine Shingrix from my NHS GP practice. Due my second dose inJanuary. Thought those of you who are under the impression that this is only available privately (which it was up to a little while ago.) should know. Happy New Year to you all.

Meningitis
I’m scared I have meningitis, I’ve had a bad headache on and off for 2 days, and a tiny fever I think I feel hot anyway and a rash on my neck, I’ve tried the glass test and I’m unsure on whether it goes or not it looks paler than what it was but still red I’m just scared :(

Tapering while suffering with shingles?
Was recently hospitalized for asthma in October and put on mega doses of steroids. When I came down to 12 1/2 I parked. I started to reduce a half a milligram and now at 12. Just came down with the most wicked form of shingles. I went to the hospital in an ambulance! It was so painful I couldn’t even

Shingles twice followed by viral meningitis
Hi I had shingles twice which my GP treated really quickly so feel I got off lightly. I then got VM. I have suffered with neuropathic pain ever since along with some really odd sensations too. The symptoms have improved but not gone altogether, it has taken over 6 years. I have now been diagnosed with

Antibiotics
I had a tetanus jab and a course of antibiotics, 500mg 3 times a day. Which finished 17th September. I'm still experiencing wrist and hand pain, feeling fatigued also having muscular aches and pains in feet, knees and ankles. I have ordered a medichecks blood test and wonder should there be a gap

Shingles after the Pfizer vaccine?
Has anyone developed shingles after getting the Covid 19 vaccine? I had the Pfizer shot in March and I came down with shingles in September. I started researching and there are some studies showing that shingles could be a side effect. Just curious if anyone else has had shingles in the last 6 months
