I have broken out down below my left breast. It looks like shingles, but, I had breast cancer in 1999 and I have heard there is something called inflammatory breast cancer. The symptons kinda look like that too. It itches real bad. What do ya'll think? It's been 2 wks. I have used all kinds of oitments. I am calling my doctor in the morning.
Can you still get the shingles if you have had the shingles shot?

Good idea to call your dr. Itching isn't usually the complaint there is about shingles, but it can happen. Usually its painful. Does it go around along the ribs towards your back? It could just be a rash of some kind too. Yeast is often under the breast, and it itches like crazy. It would be a patch of red. No matter what you need it treated so you can be free of itching. Oh, and the shingles vaccine isn't 100% effective.

Kmama, thank you so much for your input. My husband said because I had the shingles vaccine didn't mean that I would not get them. It would just be easier on me. It does not go along my ribs. My right breast is starting to itch. I just pray it is not cancer of any kind. Thank you for responding to my question
