I got it when I was 2 or 3, because my sister had just started school & caught them, then give them to me! And then I got them again when I started school.
When I was in year 10 I got shingles, I haven't a clue how I got them. It was on my back and very painful. It's similar to chicken pox but alot more painful and I had it for 3 weeks. It could of been cured in 24 hours but my mum didn't believe I was in pain and only took me to the Doctors when I'd had it a week. [i showed the school nurse and she sent me home, and told my mum to take me to the Doctors].
Also shingles is extremely painful for the elderly so I couldn't see my Grandma & Grandad incase they got it.
