Hopefully he recovers swiftly. His half brother Harley is meant to be making his debut soon. November 25?

I have had shingles. It is no picnic. It destroys nerve cells. Excruciating pain for 4 months, moderate pain for 2 months and annoying pain for 6 months. Recommend everyone get a shingles vaccine!

Where the hell's he been training? The early 1900's?

Shingles are awful w/terrible pain & it can spread... it can be treated but it can lay dormant 4 years and then reoccur... it will take him a while to get rid of this & get back in the ring ...I hope he does...

The Shingles are supposed to happen to only old people and Kaiser Permanente says to get the shot when you are 60. What are they putting in the water over there???

That's what I was thinking... Dude better watch out that he doesn't get rickets, scurvy, and polio.

Shingles can hit any person who had chicken pox previously. My friend who is 40 years old had them last year. Although it usually strikes when someone is older, it can hit anyone with a comprised immune system. She suffered from exhaustion not long before it.
