I am sorry you are dealing with this. It is interesting to hear people mention nerve pain or neuropathy with Shingrix despite the fact that it is not a live virus. I often wonder it if contributed to my neuropathy. I hope that over time the powers that be research this issue. I'm pretty upset myself too, but I can't really point to Shingrix as the only factor. Still I wonder. Thanks for your comments. Everyone who contributes provides such helpful information.
Hi, I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. I know exactly how you feel. I am going through the same thing. I wish I hadn’t gotten the shingles vaccine. All of the worst case side effects should have been divulged prior to getting the Shingrix vaccine. If I had known, I would never have gotten it. I had been told by my Dr to get it. I truly regret it. Chronic nerve pain, headaches, tremors, etc. All they told me is that I would have a sore arm for a few days. It truly was not worth living like this for probably the rest of my life. I would rather have a case of shingles. No one’s deserves this.
