Symptoms: Feeling cold, Hallucination, Headache, Tremor
Clinical narrative: In the middle of the night, I woke up feeling like I was freezing (like I'd relate to a fever breaking).  I had no fever and was not sweating.  I WAS shaking violently and uncontrollably for quite a while, maybe 2-3 hours.  I did NOT sense an emergency; I felt like if, like with a fever, I would just wait, I could/would ride it out.  My hand was shaking too hard to pick up my cell phone and not drop it.  Later I had a headache, and several hours later it seemed more like an hallucination.  Today I feel fine, sort of, much like after an illness.  I asm reporting because my family recommended this action.

Clinical narrative: I had the two shot shingrix vaccine as reccomended by my doctor.   The first dose in Pharmacy was no eventful.  The second vaccine at the Pharmacy has caused sever side effects.  Started with immediate swelling in my right arm followed by soreness in my right shoulder and neck.   The arm pain and shoulder pain are gone but my neck pain continues.   Plus i have a tingling sensation up my neck and into my ear five or six times a day.  Also I seem to be very fatigued all day which is affecting my ability to do normal things like playing golf, which I do 3 or 4 times a week.   I have never had a reaction to a shot at all.  In my opinion the side affects of this vaccine outway the benifit.  Do you know what I can do to help?  Thanks,
