Can I get chicken pox from someone who has shingles?One of my relatives is geting Chemotherapy....and after her last shot she got shingles....I've never had chickenpox, neither have I gotten the vaccination! So can i get Chickenpox from a person with shingles? I'm 23, is it too late to get the vaccine, so I'd never have to worry about getting chickenpox?

I'm not sure, but herpes is also in this category. I'm just saying it is a virus so be careful
Get the facts on the chickenpox vaccine, treatment, causes (varicella zoster virus, VZV), symptoms and signs (itchy, red rash).
