Shingrix vaccine and graves

hi, I was diagnosed with graves a year ago and after 11 months of carbimazole I have been taken off with a view I might be in remission. Is it risky to have vaccines like Shingrix, is it likely to cause a flare up? Same applies to covid and flu vaccines. I cannot get a straight answer anywhere and specialist says ok for covid and flu but I have huge graces reaction to last covid jab in May. Any views or experience please? Much appreciated

Hello gset -

I've no experience but considering you had a bad reaction before I'd refrain :

As for Graves we do now have some research papers you may not be aware of :-

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/338...

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/306...
