Kluurs, keep us updated on your wife's reaction.
That's nearly 104, is that near ER time?
Hope she improves very quickly, as of course do we all. -
Temp is down to 100.4 this morning - but high fever, high bpm. I'm hoping the worst is behind us.
@kluurs amazing how variable it is.
I got a shingles vaccine months ago and it hurt like a summnabitch for days afterward. Never had a reaction to any flu/COVID vaccine.
Mrs. George had the shingles vaccine last week - nothing.
Glad that she's, hopefully, on the mend.

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Speaking of Shingles vaccines, I had chicken pox as an adult about 10 years ago, and have read conflicting reports about whether I should or shouldn’t have the Shingles vax. I’ll obviously ask my doctor at my physical but I am curious if @George-K or @Jolly would know anything?

According to my mother, I never had the chicken pox. As I understand it, I should not get the shingles vaccine.

Did you have the Chicken Pox vaccine?
I actually caught my Chicken Pox from somebody that had Shingles, He didn’t realize it was contagious.

@LuFins-Dad There was no Chicken Pox vaccine when I was a child. I have not had the vaccine as an adult either.
Natural immunity FTW!

CDC says to get it and stipulates that immunity is about 7 years.
Your call.

I had chicken pox as a kid and was vaccinated after that, iirc.
When I was 26, I got shingles. Hurt like hell, but it healed and I ignored it.
I got it again when I was in my late 60s.
I got vaccinated about a year ago.

I had Chicken Pox, Measles, Mumps, flu and Covid - all pre-vax.
Shingles was 30+ years ago, my recollection of what the doctor said was something like, "it is going to hurt for a few weeks, there's not much you can do about it."
He was right, it hurt, with some sores along the bottom of the rib cage, but I don't remember any other symptoms.
My doctor told me to get the vax.
