My 69 year old neighbor never got the vaccine and he got shingles and from the shingles he got a rare infection that went to his brain and killed him in 5 days. His sister told me she was always on him to get vaccinated but he never listened to her.

I got the Shingles shots and still got the shingles. I got it in my right eye, and it did go to my brain. I had encephalitis. I didn’t even know who I was. My poor husband. I ended up being in the hospital and rehabilitation for almost 3 months. The nerve pain is horrible and that was in November 2024, and it has not let up. I can’t see out of my right eye.
One thing I would like to tell everyone who has Rheumatoid Arthritis is if you start getting short of breath, please, please tell your doctor. I told my doctor and they kind of blew me off. Now I am fighting again for my life. I have Pulmonary fibrosis and Intestinal Lung (Spelled wrong) disease went from working in 2023 to being on oxygen 24/7 and hoping they can stop the scaring of my lungs. I am not trying to scare anyone. Just please don’t be afraid to question your doctor. We are the ones that live with the consequences. Hugs and prayers to everyone, just keep fighting.
