My doc wanted both of us to get the shingles vaccine together. I asked at Walgreens if we were contagious. He said getting shingles from the vaccine or transmission to another person from the vaccine is so very are that our doctor was just being over cautious. I appreciate that.
I did the responsible thing and did my research about the vaccine and asked on here for the best answers of course. I feel it is a safe vaccine and MUCH better than the alternative.
P.S. Except for the 6'1" headache, I have zero side effects.
