Pre-eclampsia hits 3-5 percent of all pregnant women. Its symptoms are raised blood pressure and protein in the urine during the second half of the pregnancy. In rare but very serious cases the condition can be worsened through seizures. Pre-eclampsia can only be treated by treating the symptoms.
You cannot give shingles to someone else, and you cannot catch shingles from someone with shingles. However, if you have an attack of shingles, you can give someone chickenpox if that person makes direct contact with the sores and has never been exposed to chickenpox. Keeping the sores covered under clothing or by plasters will help prevent the spreading of the virus - and chickenpox - to others.
Shingles is contagious. If you have never had chicken pox or been fully vaccinated (two doses of the chicken pox vaccine) and have contact with someone with shingles you could catch chicken pox -- not shingles. Treatment for shingles sometimes includes antiviral drugs such as acyclovir and steroids for postherpetic neuralgia.
