Hi @jgsounds it must be frustrating have more flares up since that allergic reaction.
Since your doctor is suggesting you get a shingles vaccine, you may find these threads to be helpful.

I'd also like to introduce @mroreo126 and @2011panc as they may be of some help.
@jgsounds could I ask about the nerve problems you mentioned? Do they affect your LyP at all or are they two separate issues?

Yes, separate issues. I have had problems with nerve pain, neuralgia, and repetitive stress injury for decades. But the idea of postherpetic neuralgia from shingles frightens me. Not to mention it may bring on more LyP flare-ups because of the overall stress to the body.
