I'm amazed at how many posts we've had in the past several weeks about the flu vaccine and shingles. This is one of the reasons I started EmpowHer. Clearly, the CDC isn't reporting anything, but yet it sounds like we're seeing women and children who are having "shingle like symptoms" after having the shot.

It'll be interesting to see how many more posts we get on this thread.

Please keep us posted as to what happens with you and if you are diagnosed with shingles.

I'd love to be able to aggregate this type of information and make sure we let the CDC know what we're seeing here at EmpowHer. This is how we're going to change Health Care. It's a matter of us sharing this information with one another.

Everyone should know what the possible side effects are from any drug or shot.

Thanks for coming to EmpowHer and sharing your story. I hope you're feeling better.

Best in health,

Michelle
