I can't say I endured any pain, it was just the accompanying
chills and tired as if I'd been plowing with a mule all day.
Plus shuffling through the house like I couldn't pick up my
feet and sleeping 15 hours.  Ten of those hours were in the
bed then I decided I'd had enough of that and went to the
couch to sleep another 5 hours.

 
Ah, so variable reactions.  Ok.  I can handle tired, just not right
now.  Post NY's is fine.
 
 

Sorry, I should have read further down before my reply.
 
The injections are free and it's a 2-6 month wait between
first and second injections.  So don't neglect the second
one if you opt for this vaccine.
 
This vaccine has a 96/97% success rate of preventing
shingles compared to the original vaccine of a few
years ago.  That one had a 63% (if I remember correctly)
success rate of preventing them.  It is not an injection
to prevent chicken pox though.

Ok, Thank you for the info!  Sorry my reading order caused confusion.
I'm not on all the time.  Just normally about 11am EST to maybe 3pm
EST.  Tonight back in as bored.
