My 13yr old son has CAH. He had chicken pox when he was 2. It was a pretty severe case, and he was in the hospital for over a week. Now, he has gotten shingles. I thought that only elderly people got it. Has anyone else had this happen with a child? If so, is it a long time before they get over it? I've heard it can last from 4 weeks to months. I am writing for the first time, and I've been reading the messages for hours now. This is SO interesting! I'm so glad to find you guys!
