petitepedal Posted February 25, 2020 Share #1 Posted February 25, 2020 I had the shingles. Caught in time to not be painful..But...I had lots of itch...It took about a year to calm down..However...I still have times when the area that had the shingles..itches..I just had a moment like that...and thought I would share..My neighbor..who knew I had the shingles...just got her first shot on Friday. If you have not had your shingles shot..get it done. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you got the old shingles shot a few years ago, there's a new, improved version that you might also want to get. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither is 100 percent but the new one is supposed to improve chances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrapr Posted February 25, 2020 Share #7 Posted February 25, 2020 I am going in for my 2nd shot next time I'm in Portland. About 2 weeks. The first one was about 5-6 months ago. They said just walk in to the Nurse Practioner. FIL had shingles by his eye. He was miserable. I do not want to go through that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
