Shingles Vaccine
I’m in that inbetween age ie 67 in February 2024 hence now have to wait for the new vaccine while younger people get it before me. I wondered if we would be considered vulnerable and get it that way ? I’ve not been invited by the local practice. I’m currently on 6.5mg pred, but have been here and lower

Has anyone here in my age group been given the
shingles
vaccine
owing to vulnerability due to cirrhosis? Thanks.

Flare after Shingrix shingles vaccine?
Hi Everyone, I received my second (recombinant)
shingles
vaccine
yesterday. The first one caused a mild fever and malaise. This time my finger joints are stiff and pretty painful. Has anyone else had something similar and, if so, how long did it last? Thanks so much

Shingles Vaccine
My GP surgery is offering me the
shingles
Vaccine
. Has anyone had any side effects from it. I am worried as I stopped having the flu vaccine because of painful side effects. Is it safe to have and would you advise having it?

Yes, You CAN have the Shingles Vaccine
Hi Everyone, I'm writing this just in case there is anyone out there who thinks they can't have the
shingles
vaccine
because they are on pred. I believed this and refused the vaccine. I later found It was only true if you were on over 20mgs of pred (which I am not).

No notification- of any sort- from my Doctor!
I’ve just found that I can have the
shingles
vaccine
as it is not a live vaccine now . I have had kidney problems with pred, methotrexate, statins, istins, neurontin, folic, Omeprazole, etc etc!

Myositis or something else?
There's nothing I do, no pattern, except I had a
shingles
vaccine
last week. No after effects. But the previous occasions were not after a vax. The pain goes completely with an extra 5mg of pred within 24 hours. But surely it's not PMR just in such a small area?

Shingles vaccine… bad reaction
Last Thursday I had the
Shingles
vaccine
, 1st dose. I immediately had a sore arm, painful really and that continued into the weekend. I also felt generally unwell, completely out of kilter and dizzy/ nauseous at times, runny nose and a bit of a cough.

Does anyone know how long you have to leave it after rutuximab before having the
shingles
vaccine
. I had infusion in December & my GP has never offered this or the pneumonia jab so was going to chase this up. Tia

Shingles Vaccine Update
Well I never!! I woke to a text message from our GP's surgery to say that I am eligible for a shingles vaccination with a link to book in with a nurse. My GP's obviously looked up the guidelines & though better of her decision! I'm just hoping that after the fight to get it I don't have any adverse

Shingles vaccine?
I unknowingly (until after) had shingles in March 2023 which I believe, triggered first episode of Afib. Now thinking about having the vaccine, concerned that it will trigger Afib. What are people's experiences of having the vaccine? Do I need it yet. Maybe still have antibodies in my system? Will
