Shingles, a side affect ov Astra Zeneca jab

My shingles began about 14 days after my Covid-19 jab. I have now weaned off painkillers but continue getting pain spikes, sometimes preventing me sleeping. If I had to choose whether to have a Covid-19 jab now, knowing that shingles would follow, I would still say yes. I'm now 7 months on and hope every morning that the pain will have gone, but it hasn't happened yet.

If anyone would like to know more about my experience, please let me know.

Best wishes to all my fellow sufferers.
