I'm hesitant to say go for the vacination. Shingles is just the Chicken Pox coming back to haunt you. Most people never get shingles others get them multiple times. My daughter got the at the age of 10 years old. She had chicken pox at 5 years old. She was treated by a Dr. both times with each outbreak. So it wasn't that she wasn't treated properly. Some people just get them.

I have thrown up violently as an adult from accidental gluten. To make things more fun I usually have both ends going at the same time. (TMI sorry). I end up sitting on the can w/ a trash can on my lap. I would continue to do this to the point that I was severley dehydrated, delerious and passing out. The only thing that would stop it, would be a trip to the E.R. and getting an I.V.
I no longer have violent reactions like that (KNOCK ON WOOD!) I hope I didn't just curse myself. How I got over the severe reactions was going to acupuncture. She calmed my immune system down. Up until last week it had been 3 years since I had a cold. I always tell her she is worth her weight in gold.
Now when I get glutened I get a slight stomach ache w/ the runs and then it is over.
