For Herpes Zoster, Prophylaxis "First injection was not too bad, a bit of soreness in my arm and feeling tired. I got the 2nd injection yesterday morning, and last night was feeling chilled and very tired. Today is better, but still feel a bit ill. The side effects are nothing compared to a case of shingles."
