Side Effects of Shingles Vaccine

@vaspsuie88
Thanks for the update. You're right. Since you got the shingles vaccine and started taking Omeprazole within a couple of days of each other, it's hard to tell if one, or the other, or a combination of the two caused the rise in bp. In any case, I'm glad that you're on Amlodipine and your numbers are coming down now. In addition to checking with your PCP about what may have caused your bp to spike, you can check with your pharmacist. A pharmacist will usually know way more about drug side effects and interactions with other drugs than your PCP.
Also, it's always frustrating to me when it's apparent that you have an issue but diagnostic tests and labs show that everything is okay. Hope you can get some definitive answers soon.

So I got the 2nd shingles shot & tetanus shot in the same arm. Now for 20 days or more Im suffering from insomnia anxiety depression feet and hand are numb more sensitive to light & sound, the symptoms seem like what you get from shingles itself called Postherpetic neuralgia, which is damage to the nerves can even paralyze your lungs & kill you but usually this would occur in the 1st 2 weeks of vaccine , the chance is 3 in a million people the disorder is just like Guillain-Barré syndrome fortunately my digestive system started back working on thanksgiving day I feel a little better have been prescribed sleeping pills / anxiety pills & allergy, also contacted an attorney I will keep everyone posted

I'm male, 53 years old, my wife hand shingles so decided to get the shingles Vaccine in March 2024. My life changed 4 days later, it hit me like a ton of bricks, I could hardly walk and had sever joint pain in my knees, shoulders, wrist and hips. I also feel like my eyes have sand in them most of the time. I could immediately tell my body was fighting something foreign. I WAS healthy and had no previous joint pain. It's December 2024 and I am still dealing with it; I am seeing a rheumatologist, and he is treating me with Prednisone. I never feel normal, have low energy and IF I do anything I pay for it over the next few days. Does anyone know if this will go away or is this my new normal? A few people have mentioned Plasmapheresis, has anyone tried this, is this an option? I'm frustrated and looking for answers!
