als and shingles
by bob__0__0, Apr 15, 1998 12:00AM
is there any relationship between the onset of shingles and als symptoms?
========================================================================================
I have never heard or read of an association. Shingles is thought tp be secondary to the re-emergence of the varicella virus (chicken pox). I'll check a medline search tomorrow.
