Brief Answer:
yes

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking

I read your question and I understand your concern. Hysterectomy is a major surgical procedure and like any other surgical procedure it has stressful effect on the body. So shingles may get flares from this. But a good and prompt management shall fix the issue.

I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
