My doctor warned me that shingrix shots could hit me very hard - to be prepared to lose a day or two afterwards. I tolerate vaccines fairly well - sore but movable arm and sometimes mild fever/lassitude. I barely noticed the first shingrix shot - mild soreness only. But the second one has hit me hard - which I'm interpreting as my body launching one heck of an immune response.
Just wanted to warn folks that they might need a day off for their second shots.
