On Dec. 9, 2019, I received my second dose of the Shingrix shingles vaccine. As a 57-year-old male, it was the appropriate time for that vaccine. I believe strongly in vaccines and did not hesitate. 4 days later, on Dec. 13, unrelenting tinnitus had set in. Ringing in both ears started out of nowhere. No gradual ramp up. it just set in overnight. I contacted my doctor on Dec. 15, who referred me to an audiologist. He never mentioned a possible link to the Shingrix vaccine which I had just received. I'm an introvert who has avoided loud settings and music my entire life. I hate loud concerts. I was a journalist who had done a story about tinnitus. I knew hearing cannot be repaired in humans, and I felt good about my cautious nature. I never expected ringing in both ears to plague me. Only this week, in March of 2022, did I learn of an FDA publication that mentions tinnitus was a known rare side effect of Shingrix. It is important that side effects get reported so that you have information needed to gauge just how rare this side effect is. Not a day goes by that I do not have ringing in both ears. It never fades. I'll live with this the rest of my life.
