    Jutta, 60
    1st vaccination with Shingrix at the end of September 23. The next day pain in the vaccination arm stronger than ever with any other vaccination. On the 3rd day severe tiredness and swollen and painful lymph nodes on the collarbone. Fatigue remained for 2 days. Lymph node disappeared again after 2 weeks.
    2nd vaccination at the beginning of January 24.
    After 12 hours freezing, muscle pain, aching arm, headache and fever. Fever gone again the next day, but quite listless. Limb pain became lighter and disappeared on the 3rd day. Instead, the lymph node on my collarbone appeared again. This time it brought a second one with it and hurt for a few days every time I moved my arm or turned my head. Disappeared completely after 2 weeks. Vaccination arm hurt for 1 week. Only able to work after 7 days. Thank God there is no 3rd vaccination. But everything subsided completely. I’ve never had that before after a vaccination…
