Shingles, or herpes zoster, is a viral infection that causes a painful rash. It is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. After a person recovers from chickenpox, the virus remains inactive in the body. #Shingles occurs when the virus reactivates later in life bit.ly/3W9QexQ

Don’t want to jinx it but I got my first #shingles #vaccine about 24 hrs ago; so far I really only felt a little more tired than usual last night but not terribly so. Just back from a run now - only a few miles because I didn’t want to overdo it, but actually felt pretty good.

So, I have #shingles, and I'm really lucky to have gone in to the doctor when I did and started on antivirals bc this sucks and it could have been WAY worse. I wouldn't have gone in if it weren't for a bunch of other factors. Thought I'd share my experience, for the PSA of it. 🧵

Could the shingles vaccine help to prevent dementia?

Large-scale analyses of electronic health data suggest that the herpes zoster vaccine could protect against dementia — but it’s not yet clear how.

It was 1yr ago today that I had shingles. One of the most painful, irritating, and inconvenient experiences I’ve ever had in my life so far. If you are eligible, get your shingles vaccine. I wouldn’t wish what I endured on anyone. #cdnpoli #shingles #getvaxxed
