At 5 hours after Injection became very tired, had to retire to bed at 6pm. Pains and chills ensued a few hours later and disturbed sleep. Symptoms began to diminish after 30 hours and resolved by 36 hours. | Received at Walgreens, first dose of two | M | 70 | | 4/22/2021 | 5 | Shingles Vaccine | I had the first dose in October 2020 and just got my second dose yesterday. After the first shot, I had chills in the middle of the night and did not feel well the next day. After the second shot, I feel pretty much the same as after the first shot. I had a very bad case of shingles on my face in 2013. It was the most sick I have ever been in my life. I missed more than two weeks of work and did not get my energy back for about four months. Also, the skin on my face and scalp bothered me for years afterward. I also have a permanent scar. Shingles can be very rough. I wouldn't want to get it again. | F | 52 | | 4/21/2021 | 3 | Shingles Vaccine | Received 1st dose in October '20 no issues. Received 2nd dose 2-weeks ago and very sore arm-comparable to tetanus vaccine maybe worse. I still have an itchy neck and face and feel very light headed from time to time. Hot flashes are back and I haven't had those since December. As long as these are temporary issues I'd still rather have the vaccine than shingles. | 1st vaccine October '20. 2nd vaccine April '21. Both given at my doctor's office | M | 51 | | 4/19/2021 | 2 | Shingles Vaccine | Exhausted, freezing, massive headache like none I've ever had in the past.. | I've had 2 shots of moderna..

I sure hope this is worth it because this vax is horrible. | Had both Pfizer covid vax in February.. hardly any reaction with either 1 or 2.

I've had shingles before and I'm not convinced this is better or worth it. Side effects are much worse than the Covid vaccine. | Second dose | F | 66 | | 4/17/2021 | 1 | Shingles Vaccine | Writing this for my mom: First shot ok, just a small lump that remained in the muscle. Today I got second shot and two hours later I'm in the ER with severe arm pain like I never had before. From 1 to 10 it's 15!! Hope it goes away quick but read some cases last months. If this reaction is like 1 in 6, how are they allowing this??? | Had moderna vaccine between shingrix shots and more than a month after second moderna. | F | 84 | | 4/16/2021 | 1 | Shingles Vaccine | Debilitating headache--I was in bed for 3 days and I NEVER get headaches. | March 27, 2021 was my first dose and I'm concerned about taking the second dose.

Received 2nd shot in February and symptoms were much worse! Also lasted about 3 days, but then a week later an itchy rash appeared around my mouth.

I am still ill 7 months later. I did not get the 2nd shot. I won't. I have extreme exhaustion and fatigue daily, headaches, chronic pain all over, brain fog and want to die some days. I was walking 5-10 miles daily with my dog before the shot. Now I can barely walk her a few blocks. That vaccine has destroyed m life. And now I'm too ill to get a COVID vaccine. | F | 52 | | 4/8/2021 | 1 | Shingles Vaccine | 2nd shot, next day slight light headed, fatigue, nauseous, can't raise my arm feels so painful, freezing cold, headache , just AWFUL.

Severe arm pain at injection site, and very warm along with pain. I was nauseous, dizzy, severe body aches in joints and muscles. Extreme cold chills, and headache, weakness, and extreme fatigue and tiredness. I had stomach issues, with diarrhea. Most of these side effects lasted a week or more, and then some up to a month. I did not feel like myself for several months. I have refused to take the 2nd shot of the shingles vaccine. I cannot go through the pain and suffering of another shot. It was the worst vaccine I have ever had in my life. And, the pharmacist gave it to me on the same day as my flu vaccine last fall 2020. He said that they both could be taken together with no adverse reactions. I have thought that maybe I had a worse reaction because of the 2 vaccines at the same time. I dont think that was a good idea at all!! | I only received the one does of shingrix vaccine, because of my long lasting horrible side effects i refused the 2nd followup shot. | F | 63 | | 4/4/2021 |
