hi i'm 53 yr old female had a case of shingles. jan. of this year. dr prescribed valacyclovir. had follow up 3 wks after treatment completion. (i also have lupus - since 1993) now i find myself with the shingles once again. dr prescribed valacylovir as before with zovirax 5% cream this time. this is my 4th time with shingles in a year. i've had hiv testing feb 2015 during my yearly exam tested negative. why do i keep getting the shingles. i'm told because i'm under 60 years old i'm too young i can not get the vaccine. i am afraid to have intercourse with my boy friend. please advise.
