Supposedly it's an intial shot, then have the second (final) one 3 months later.

I’d probably pass on it. Good chance they slip you a Covid vax “by mistake”

The second shot prompts a stronger (flu-like) reaction. Get it on a Friday so you have a couple of days to recover.

I’ve received it. Think it comes in two parts. Arm hurts like a bitch for 2 days

Just mix up some ivermectin and peroxide and inhale it through a nebulizer. My cousin had shingles and did that and he was well enough to go to Golden Corral the next day

I took the first dose and felt like warmed over dogshit and said eff the second shot.
Disclaimer: I've had shingles twice, both mild. Maybe that's what make the reaction to the vax harsher.

I'd like to see your reaction to actually getting shingles. Because it hurts/burns like a mother fricker.

Shingrix. Recommended if you’re over 50. First shot. Wait 2-6 months then get second shot. No side effects for me. From what I’ve heard, shingles is miserable. Got the shots at a local CVS.

Gave me shingles. Go figure.
Posted on 8/31/23 at 6:19 pm to boudinman
I took it no issues
Posted on 8/31/23 at 6:20 pm to boudinman
I got them. Slight body temp rise but gone a day later.

My wife had had the shot and had no symptoms. Her sister did too with no side effects.
I don't do vaccines for flu, shingles, pneumonia, Covid etc.
One of the potential side effects of many of the above is the chance to contract GBS and I'd not wish that on anyone.

I had my second two days ago. They didn't care about the long gap between.
Arm still hurts, first vaccine that hit me this hard. Usually don't ever notice them.

Isn’t it like $300.00?

Got the shingles shot a couple weeks ago. Take ibuprofen the day before and a couple days after the shot.
The area where I got the shot in my arm felt hard for a few days and I felt lethargic and lost my appetite for a few days. Not complete flu like symptons just didnt feel that good for a few days. Have my follow up in October.
Still glad I got it but wish I knew what I typed above before I got it.
Good Luck

Yes I have and no issues at all
Posted on 8/31/23 at 6:28 pm to boudinman
Yes, 2 shots spaced far apart.
Having already had shingles, the 6 months of stabbing pain 24/7/365 was well worth avoiding if possible, especially if it hits your upper body.
FYI, it only attacks 1 side of your body (left or right)
It only attacks upper (head and neck), middle (torso), and lower (groin, butt, legs)
Upper and lower are worse, middle is probably best.

Yep I had it. Didn't save my roof from that hail storm though.

Yes, No
