Non shingles rash following the shingles vaccine

Since you're seeing a dermatologist, I assume he explored other possibilities. (I've never heard of a reaction of this kind to the the shingrex vaccine, and I stay as up to date as possible on all things shingles because I had a bout that put me in the hospital on a morphine pump.) Were you tested for Grover's disease, for example?

@bjwilliams I checked pics of Grovers disease. My rash does not have any bumps or pistules. The rash is just under the skin. Sort of like prickly heat you get in the tropics. The skin was pretty red and inflamed but no pain. As of today the skin seems to be less red so lets see tomorrow. I am only using vaseline and or skin creams like Eucerin.
