I had Shingles 3 times before getting the shingrix vaccine. I would much rather have shingles than what the vaccine did to me. At least with shingles there is hope of recovery.

Hi @stephaniet I am so sorry to hear of your negative experience with the Shingrix vaccine. Thank you for sharing to alert us of the potential health hazards. I am nearing 60 and will think twice about getting the vaccine. I share this information with my husband who was advised by his physician to get the vaccine. I have seen some folks get a Shingles outbreak. The rash is so painful. Neither my parents nor my older brother ever got the vaccine and no one in my immediate family had gotten the illness. I do believe my brother and I had the chicken pox during our childhood. My mother(90) always refused vaccines within the past 40 years. Can you share some of the symptoms the vaccine has left you with? Wish you well. Toni
