    Shingles is a painful rash that one develops in later years from the measles virus. The virus lays dormant in the body and breaks out usually when your immune system is not functioning up to par.
    they usually appear on the chest or under the breast in moist areas. You do, however, take herpes neds to get rid of them.sometimes they last for months.

      Interesting question.  Herpes and cold sores are related to Chicken Pox and Shingles, so you could wind up with similar symptoms while coming back negative for herpes itself.  I have had shingles around one side of my body, from belly button to backbone, and man was that some painful stuff.  I have seen children (including my son) acquire chickenpox by exposure to a friend of mine who had shingles on his arm that was so bad the blisters were bursting and weeping.  A doctor may say no, but IMO, I would say it is not impossible.
