Had the vaccine or shingles? I’ve had the vaccine because several friends have had shingles (if you had chickenpox you are vulnerable) and one died. It’s horrible. I had the vaccine several years ago; not sure how it would interact with the COVID vaccine - may need to space them.

So if you haven't had chicken pox you can't get shingles ? If that's the case I am happy with that as not had chicken pox

I have had two family members that had it. My younger brother had it when he was in his 50’s. It is very painful and even spread to his eyes. Get the vaccine!
-
My dad got it in his head and it attacked his eye nerve endings and so, they eventually removed his eye and he now wears a fake eyeball. Pretty serious stuff.

As a healthcare provider I guarantee you do not want shingles. It causes a painful neuropathic burning type pain which can last indefinitely. This is known as post hermetic neuralgia.

I’m over 60. Wonder why my doctor has never recommended it.

I know several people that have had shingles. And most said it was the worst pain they have ever had. AND, if not vaccinated...it can, and many times does, come back. Stress is a trigger. Can you think of a more stressful time in our history???

I wish I could give everyone here a Like for their experience w/ shingles. Worst pain I ever had. I had it twice. Once,on my arm. I wished someone would have cut my arm off. It’s horrible & I’m not one to complain about pain.
