SHINGLES SHOTS ARE WORSE....
USED TO be ONLY 1 shot was necessary-—NOT IT is 2 SHOTS-—EACH ONE ==$200.
INSURANCE NOT COVERING.
For $400, I can survive Shingles-—I ALREADY did.
I have worked in healthcare for decades, and I saw a lot of bad cases of shingles in that time, but when I saw my mother get shingles about a month before she died, I determined I would risk that shot.
It was absolutely horrible. It covered her neck, shoulder, and a third of her back. It weeped constantly, and her condition was miserable to dire.
We got her into a short term rehab because we could’t care for it adequately, and they said it was the worst case they had ever seen. It was certainly the worst I had ever seen.
Just horrible. I would pay the money even if insurance didn’t cover it, and it was twice as much, if it even had a chance of preventing that.
You need a new plan. Almost all plans cover the shot for those over 50.
