I will just say this; if/when you schedule getting the shingles shot, be prepared for a very sore and dead arm. Pharmacist did say it goes in a little harder and that I would be more sore. Could barely move when I took my brother's dog out early, (they are in NYC as SIL is running the Marathon) Ice pack and sit in the recliner is the plan for today.... But I am sure it has to be better than getting shingles, so...

You never had Chicken Pox??? Only a 10% chance if you had chicken pox as a kid or even and adult |
No boat, back in the suds.

I did have chicken pox, so the virus is already in my system, dormant. And the shots are to keep it dormant. Heading to sister's wedding next Saturday so have to cover all the bases. Including everyone attending getting a Covid test within 72 hours before the wedding.

yup .....might be the worst shot in terms of pain in my arm but having shingles was no fun either....both covid shots(moderna) were painful for quite a while with pronounced swelling...after my second the pharmacist came over to ask how I was feeling so i could leave...I told her I felt fine but my are was already killing me..I have a pretty high pain tolerance...the pain you experience from shingles is not only the burning and discomfort from the surface rash but and internal pain like nerve pain...it's pretty rough |
