Wondered if there's a reaction? Any side effects?
07-27-2015 09:23 AM
Yes, and so did my husband and no problems. But, like with any medication some will have a reaction. If you are unsure of your CP status, I advise you get a titre before getting an injection you may not need.

I got it. No problems.

Absolutely. I know that it's only 50% effective, but I figured that every little bit helps. As far as reactions, I had some redness and swelling at the injection site, but nothing too bad. It was done at Walgreens and insurance completely covered the cost.

I also had no reaction at all. And I got a tetanus shot at the same time.

I took the shot more than 3 years ago, and did react to the vaccine with injection site redness and mild swelling that lasted nearly 10 days. However, this is a very common reaction for me, so I was not at all surprised. I had the exact same reaction in May when I updated my tetanus, and also react this same way to my yearly flu shot. Steroids and antibiotics are the only shots I can take without a reaction.

I got my shingles shot several years ago. No problems at all.

After my husband had shingles twice, I decided to get shot. No reaction and no shingles

I had no real problem with the shingles shot. A bit of soreness at the injection site for a week or so.

i had the shot and no reactions to it. i was thrilled that my insurance covered it because some don't.
