Hi,
I have been on Leflunomide for a few years now and I have had a very stressful time with my arthritis just lately, I have now been told I have carpal tunnel in both wrists, and last week found out my mother has bowel cancer, this has now bought on an attack of Shingles. Has anyone else had shingles whilst on the DMARDS? I have Shingles in my head on my left side, my eye, ear and mouth is very painful (blisters in mouth and ear) and I feel very poorly. I know the shingles takes three weeks to get out of your system, and wondered if anyone else has got so low that they have had shingles?
