Could Shingles Damage Spleen?

Hi I am a 58 year old female that developed shingles on May 14, with

anitviral medications and Predisone it has started to clear up, and not so painful (the outbreak was on the left side uder the breast.) Now I am have extreme pain in the upper abdomen right directly under my ribcage with numbness, on the left side.

Could the shingles have damaged my spleen? I find myself more fatigued than usual. Thank you KrisAnn
