It was unknown if the reporter considered the woozy, feeling cold, sweating, joint pain, injection site pain, injection site erythema, injection site swelling, injection site warmth, bizarre dreams, influenza-like symptoms, injection site induration, injection site lump and hallucination to be related to Shingrix.  Additional details were provided as follows: The patient could not receive the 2nd dose of Shingrix earlier due to supply issues. As soon as she received Shingrix, she felt woozy. The patient started feeling worse and developed flu-like symptoms which included bad joint pain, freezing cold and sweating. The patient experienced pain and redness at the injection site, and it was hot to touch. The patient continued to feel bad and also experienced a hard lump about the size of a half-dollar at the injection site. The night before the date of reporting, the patient  woke up about 3 am, experienced freezing cold, and she was been experiencing every night since getting the vaccine. On the day of reporting, in the morning, the patient no longer had joint pain, but the swelling at the injection site was about the size of a baseball, but the redness and and hot to touch was still present at the time of reporting, but not as hard as it was the day before. The patient did not see any signs of injection.  The patient also had an experience like a weird dream or hallucination after dozing off, but she was not someone who remembered her dreams, so it was a very unusual experience for her.
