I wonder if this is the best time to receive the vaccine. My husband and I are in good physical condition. 76, and 80 years old. We will be receiving the regular flu shot in a short time, and then we will receive the swine flu shots.
Please give me a professional opion on the spacing of these necessary injections. The shingles inoculation is scheduled for Sept. 2, 2009. The other flu shots will follow in a little less than one month.

I underwent a lumpectomy for breast cancer October, 2004 and received 37 radiation treatments. Does this history have any negative considerations? Thank you.
Shingles
I am from the USA. I live in Bangkok Thailand. I went to hospital with symptoms of Shingles but was told that there is no cure for Shingles! No Shot for imunization! I heard and read in the net that there is indeed a cure! The chickenpox virus in a weakened dose. It was approved by the FDA. Millions of people have been given the Vaccine, So why not in Thailand??
I would appreciate some advice.

Shingles
Does medicare pay for the shingles vaccine? I'm 67 and
had one single shingle when I was fourty and I thought I
was going to die. My doctor recently recommended that I
get the vaccine but I understand it is expensive.

Shingles vaccine
I am an 82 year old cancer survivor. My treatment was radiation, followed by Femara and Tamoxifen. Is the vaccine recommended for people such as myself as described above.
In addition, my sister who has a pacemaker and has had a small bout with shingles, also asks if the vaccine is recommended for her.
