Guys, anyone who experiences neuropathy from a shingles vaccine absolutely should report it to the FDA. This is considered a serious adverse reaction to the FDA. IF YOUR REPORTED THE REACTION TO YOUR MD. BY LAW THEY SHOULD HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE COMPANY THAT MAKES THE VACCINE.. I worked for a major pharmaceutical company for over 30 years, and have reported many adverse reactions to my company listed reaction in the PI and those not listed in the PI. The FDA will notify the company of the report, and if enough come on, the will initiate an investigation.

Hi magnum52 and @jonnyd I'm thinking there must be a class action lawsuit by now? Sunnyflower

@magnum52 It is my understanding that "causation" is very difficult to prove when dealing with the human body and the reaction of widely accepted medications, vaccines, treatments. Certainly with an aging population with so many more doctors and clinics there has been more cases of Neuropathy than in ages past.. as the expected life span has lengthened.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5371025/ The preceding link tells of a general causation ... going to a doctor or receiving treatment ... but specific causation for the 100s of types of neuropathy is really difficult to find.. That of course is why we see specialists, why we go to interdisciplinary clinics like Mayo.. Ken
