Guest guest Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Well funny I just had the shingles 3 dang times. I am not sure. I had one gi doc tell me yes and my oncology doc said no. Then the last time I saw him he said go ahead and get it if you can find it. I called today about the vaccine and they will not even have any until mid September. But I am going to try it because I don't want that crap again.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 I posted this question on Dr. Palmer's WebMd page. Her response: Palmer, MD responded: There are no contraindications for a person with HCV to get the shingles vaccine. However if your neutrophil count ( a subset of the white blood cells) is under 750, for any reason, such as due to interferon treatment, vaccination should be delayed. Your doctor can determine your neutrophil count through a blood test. > > See this the crap I get all bent out of shape over. Do you take the darn vaccine or not? Who really knows.
