I developed shingles. Within 48 hours, I had unexplained pain which worsened until the rash erupted 1 wk later. I was on Acyclovir 5x/day for 2 wks. It was very painful. Rash to my left back/side. I know I have been told & I have personally told patients, over & over, that the flu vaccine does not cause illness. But I always coincidentally have some symptom every single time I have a flu vaccine. I've had the typical flu like symptoms including chills, aches & cough with sore throats. I have lost my voice twice. I've had GI symptoms twice. And now this time I had an outbreak of shingles. I just wonder if it's possible that someone, like me, can just have very sensitive immune systems? Can you please research this possibility? I have never missed a flu vaccine in all these years. In fact, I used to work for flu vaccine clinics & would strongly encourage them. But I am concerned that my particular body system does not tolerate it. Which concerns me because I know as a nurse, it is strongly advised that I get vaccinated. But to get shingles for no apparent reason - I was not under stress & was feeling fine. I did have a cold 1 week prior, but it resolved before I had the vaccine. I am actually very sensitive to any medication I've ever taken, sensitive to the good effects as well as potential adverse effects. I do want to mention, I am so convinced of this coincidence, I am afraid to ever get a flu vaccine in the future. But I am afraid of the flu also. And concerned about what you must think. And concerned about what my employer's reaction will be if I choose not to get the vaccine ever again. Please advise me. Thank you for your time.
On 1/30/2021 at about 8PM, I began having occasional periods of rapid heart rate when I was inactive, and the periods would come and go. When I checked my heartrate on my smartphone, it indicated a normal ECG. I measured my blood oxygen level with a pulse oximeter, and the result was normal. On 1/31/2021, I would still feel my heartrate quicken occasionally and then return to normal. I didn't experience any pain, but I still felt that something wasn't right. On 2/2/2021, I still didn't feel completely all right, so I had my husband take me to the ER . At the ER, I underwent an EKG, blood tests, and a urinalysis; the results to all three were normal. I was referred to my PCP,  who then referred me to a cardiologist. Dr. conducted a cardiac CT scan with dye and an EKG. He detected blockages in two arteries, but he didn't think they were related to my symptoms. No causes for the symptoms were detected. I now visit Dr.  every 6 months; by the first follow-up, I was no longer having symptoms. Dr. prescribed me Prilosec, plus I gave up coffee. I have been symptom-free ever since.
