Hi clouds
DocJohn has recently added all microbial induced illnesses to our Lyme Disease forum here, and as shingles is caused by the herpes virus, I would think that is likely the forum for it

You sure have my sympathy as I had a bout with shingles after being doused with malathione by a plane spraying for mosquitoes on Captiva Island while I was on an early morning beach walk.
I was very ill but had excellent recovery with a series of natural detox treatments. My doctor believed that the pesticide poisoning had so my compromised immune system that it made me an easy target for the virus
I was given an amino acid,
L-LYSINE that has been shown to halt the reproductive cycle of the herpes virus
I have been free of any shingles for years now
