Ines, I am so sorry about your experience. I have been through a bout of shingles and it was one of the most painful things I had ever experienced.
Do you know whether you had chickenpox as a child, and if so, whether it was a mild or serious case?
I'm very glad you called the National Vaccine Injury Compensation program. It seems that only from repeated reporting of such symptoms will they understand that people getting shingles in reaction to a flu shot is more than a coincidence. The responses we are building just on this thread seems evidence of that.
Take care as you recover. Please let us know if you hear anything from the NVIC, okay?
