Has anyone had experience with oral lichens planus and shingle vaccination? I have managed by eating carefully to get along alright with OLP. While I think being vaccinated against shingles would be a fine idea, I also think that it might not go at all well with oral lichens planus.

Hi Ruth - I had the old shingles vaccine in 2012 with no problems (my OLP started in 2011), but don't know about the new vaccine (Shingrix). I've heard the side effects can be pretty rough regardless so I'm still on the fence about getting it. Keep us posted about what you decide to do.
