Topics today include:

Your calls about:

  • Shingles vaccine. What is a difference between Zostavax and Shingrix?
  • A caller reports having shingles less than a year ago. Should he get the vaccine?
  • A woman with Parkinson’s disease develops white fingernails. What does this mean?
  • Relapsing polymyalgia rheumatica. Approach to treatment.
  • Developing tolerance to opioids. Questions that should be asked of a caller’s pain management physician
