Headache

Laura,

I know this is way in left field, but, I was wondering if you're being treated with Acyclovir or something to prevent Shingles? The reason I'm asking is, although my friend did not have MDS, she had shingles in her head, and it still causes intense headaches... she had some rash on her face & head, but, when the rash went away, she still has a headache frequently.

I just wanted to ask if that had been considered at all, especially with low immunity during the transplant and the possibility of shingles.

I will keep you in my prayers.
Cindy
