4 | Shingles Vaccine | The only side effect that I had was at the vaccine site -- a bit red, swollen and achy.

Had 2nd shot a week ago in other arm. Sore but main issues is aching and motion restriction making it hard to put arms above head and towards my back - enough to make it hard to dress at times. Concerned this is still a problem from the first shot so thinking the second one will also cause pain for a while. | F | 74 | | 2/19/2021 | 4 | Shingles Vaccine | I had a really sore arm for a couple of days after both shots. Even bruised around that area. But I felt completely fine besides that after the 1st dose. Different story after the 2nd dose. I received the 2nd shot around noon on that day. Along with the very sore and bruised arm, I had muscle and body aches all over that evening and the entire next day. They were pretty bad. Also, a headache, and a little loss of appetite. However, I woke up on day 2 feeling back to normal again, except for the sore arm. | F | 58 | | 2/17/2021 | 3 | Shingles Vaccine | First dose was beginning of December 2020, I had mild flu like symptoms the following day.

My experienced side effects included: injection site soreness, fever, chills, body aches, and general malaise. The worst of it lasted for about 36 hours but the malaise lasted about 4 days. The second dose was completed on February 7, 2021. This dose had similar side effects, but also included nausea/vomiting, loss of appetite, runny nose, slight shortness of breath, dizziness, and a few hours of vertigo. The malaise, like the first dose is the longest lasting side effect. It definitely isn't a walk in the park, but would do it again.
