About this listen

Host Solomon Alexis shares a personal account of getting shingles while living with multiple myeloma, explaining how a weakened immune system and cancer treatment can allow the virus to reactivate and cause severe nerve pain and a one-sided rash.

He urges listeners not to ignore sudden rashes, to seek medical attention early (including antivirals), and to pay attention to bodily warning signs, as minor symptoms can reveal larger health issues.
