Mine made me sick for about 24-36 hours, the second one was worse. Hope you don't have any effects from it, though it certainly beats the shingles.

Got my second shingles vaccine two weeks ago, sore arm for about three days and nothing else. They are expensive however my wife has a friend who got shingles in her eye for over six months. When we heard that news we said time for the vaccine.

My first shot wiped me out. Didn't sleep at all that night - wracked with shivers and chills.
Second shot - just sore at the injection site.
My wife got her's at the same time. No bad reactions at all.

I received my first shot yesterday along with my TDAP. No pain whatsoever. All free of charge, thankfully.

Walked into Walgreens awhile back and got first one, then went back to get the second. Sore arm for a day or so and Tricare paid 100%. Forgot all about shingles until my sons father in law got it in his eyes. Horrible, came within a stones throw of being blinded
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Alex Jones advised me against it. Happy Camper said it’s the Debble’s venom.

I heard the herpes zoster vaccine makes a guy's username display wrong: Anyone know if that is true?

Need to get mine. Seen some family members suffer with shingles. Looked damn miserable.

Dude, you need to re-evaluate your healthcare options if you paid that out of pocket.

Well, since the shingles vaccines produced and marketed to date:
1) do not prevent getting shingles with 100% efficacy; 2) only promise to reduce the severity of your shingles outbreak; and 3) generate “windfall profits” for the pharm companies that make them,
I am surprised that there isn’t a massive hue-and-cry among the Medical Experts on this here sneer-reviewed forum.
But seriously… it’s a great way to save yourself a lot of misery.
