My dirty back

When I ws working at the telephone company in the Telephone engineers office I had trouble with my back itching and I complained to my fellow workers and one of them said there was a doctor in the 6 story building we were in in Topeka so I made an appointment and his diagnois was I had a dirty back and needed a back brush. It did not help. Later when I got a dufferent doctor in Kansas City he asked me if I had ever had chicken pox which I had as a small child. He told me that I had shingles. Now I still wash my back good but let it itch. When our oldest daughter Susan was married I had a flare up which did not make me as the mother of the bride relaxed going down the aisle.
