By Lawrence E. Lamb, M.D.

DEAR DR. LAMB — I am
writing about shingles. I had
them and at that time I wrote
to Dr. Joseph Molner; he was
writing in our newspaper like
you are.

My problem is your infor-
mation is different from his.
You say you can't catch
shingles from a person with
chicken pox. Dr. Molner says,
take care to stay away from
youngsters with chicken pox,
a week or two of being careful
is a small price to pay if you
ean avoid shingles.

You say if you have an at-
tack of shingles and recover
you are not immune. Dr.
Molner says an attack does
produce immunity against a
second attack.

Could you please clear this
up for me? I know there is a
gap of several years between
the two opinions, but I need to
know as my daughter-in-law
just broke out with shingles.

DEAR READER — Yes,
there probably has been a few
years between the accounts. [
can’t speak for the late Dr.
Molner, but [ can say that the
statements you attribute to
me are the thinking of modern
virologists who are
authorities in the field.

Dr, Richard Johnson of
Johns Hopkins Medical Center
writes in the latest edition of
the textbook of medicine

(Beeson and McDermott 1975)
‘voster (shingles) rarely
develops after exposure to
chicken pox or other cases of
zoster.” Later in his discus-
sion, he points out that the
very rare person who gets
zoster on exposure to chicken
pox or other cases of shingles
is the one whose immune
mechanism is shot, for exam-
ple, because of destruction of
the immune system in the
course of treatment of
leukemia. By contrast, a per-
son without immunity can get

Differing data
about shingles

chicken pox after exposure to
a patient with shingles. -

Dr. Johnson notes in this
same discussion ‘There is a
popular misconception that
herpes zoster (shingles) does
not recur. However, zoster
does not give immunity to
further attacks, and the
likelihood of a second attack
is about the same as, if not
slightly greater than, that of
having suffered the first."

Perhaps the account you
read contributed to the
widespread mistaken idea
that an attack of shingles con-
feres immunity. In any case it
isn’t so. It is quite possible for
you to have another attack of
shingles.

Time marches on and with
it our knowledge constantly
increases. When knowledge
increases, changes can and do
occur.

DEAR DR. LAMB — For
many years, once ina while, a
spray of saliva comes out of

my mouth. Could you tell me:

what this is?

DEAR READER — H is
saliva. The salivary glands
store some saliva and they
have a duct or opening in the
mouth, When one of these
glands is squeezed by
pressure, as in opening the
mouth or other muscular
movements, stored saliva will
squirt out just as if you
squeezed on a bulb syringe or
the bulb on a spray device.
The spraying has no medical
significance.
