I got the Shingles vaccine on May 12, 2025 and immediately started having numbness in both legs and feet. It is 3 months later and it has not gotten better at all. It is called neuropathy and the Doctor has just brushed it off as old age? I am 60

Welcome @kelimiller50, I only had a sore arm for a day or so after my shingles vaccine but then I already had neuropathy before I got the vaccine. Sorry that your doctor brushed you off. Sudden numbness is listed a side effect with the incidence not known - Shingrix Side Effects: Common, Severe, Long Term: https://www.drugs.com/sfx/shingrix-side-effects.html.

Have you reported the vaccine side effects? - https://vaers.hhs.gov/

Wow! Time to find a new doctor. One that won't give you the dismissive brush off !!
