I also received a flu shot and within 2 weeks had shingles. It has been a very painful 2 weeks, I still have alot of nerve pain, and am afraid of how long it might last. My doctor says it could take weeks or months to fully recover. If I would only have realized that I could have developed shingles I would never have gotten the shot. The company I work for had a nurse come in to give the shots and it was a spur of the moment decision on my part to get the shot, I am 54 yrs old and have always been in great health, but this is the most painful thing I have ever experienced. I will NEVER get the shot again! My fear now is how long it will last and if I can get it again.
