I got shingles just a few weeks after my 1st booster shot. My physician said a number of his patients also reported the same thing

I got my first flare-up about a week after receiving a pint of blood for anemia.

I also did take anti viral drug at the same time, it didn’t help with the pain but I guess it did control it in some ways I don’t know.

I don’t get shingles but I got the pain. I treated it with strong steroids to reduce the nerve inflammation caused by the vaccine. The pain went away.

I actually didn’t but I’m convinced I didn’t because I got the vaccines at 34 and 37 weeks pregnant (which I was terrified to do!) and for some very odd reason, my shingles is always dormant in pregnancy. But as soon as I give birth, it gets horrible! Especially for the first year
