snatchslayer Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 So long story short, I have chrones disease and it required me to get the full operation in 91. It's also reason my last employer turffed me (human rights is involved in that one ). So we haven't had a lot of snow this year except on Sunday we got a good dump ,so 4 of us went for a 120 mile ride. The next fucking day my chrones acts up and lays me up. What a joke . Got 1 ride in. Chrones is gayer than aids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its apparently fucking evil with pain as well. Is the lyrica helping you? It's laid him up from riding as well, says it feels like he's on fire or something. Evil. Aside from being disfigured from my operation ,it's actually pretty manageable with meds. Have maybe 1 attack every year or 2. Not bad considering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had the worst case of chicken pox my family doctor had seen. Probably why I got shingles early too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snatchslayer Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Can you get both measles and chicken pox? I remember being hospitalized for one of them when I was younger, then getting the other a few years later ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your body already provides the same amount of protection as the shot does. After 60 your bodys natural protection declines. That's when its recommended. In US ins co's will not pay for it for those under 60 because health care professionals claim it dosnt do anything.

XCR1250 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I had it on my right inner leg and thigh, lasted a couple months, a mixture of 50/50 ammonia and water helped ease the pain and itching.. Two of my friends had gotten the Shingles after getting the shot, 1 on his face and the other on his chest, both were over 60. Nasty crap if you get it.
