I got shingles in my 30s. I had chicken pox when in was in second grade. My father and I developed shingles at the same time. We had visited my mother in the hospital. Turned out her hospital roomie had chicken pox. I got it on my torso very painful to wear clothes. I would never get the shingles vaccine.

Your father and you must have poor immune systems to have shingles thay young.

I have had multiple friends get shingles in their optic nerve requiring massive and expensive antivirals to save their sight. They had lingering eye pain for years.

I got the shot.
