@bananafungus tbh everyone should be eligible for either shingles or chickenpox vaccine for free, because otherwise the scenario you are now in is going to crop up repeatedly for quite a while. I got shingles in my early 30s, and was lucky it wasn't painful, but realised as I'm now older it will get more common to crop up and I might not escape the neuropathy 😬
