Not at all.

Several medical people I asked thought the logical explanation was my immunity via the vaccine was not fully in place yet. Also my family Dr whom I had the utmost faith in thought it might have been brewing in me before taking the vaccine.

Considering what my brother in law went thru in getting a full blown course of shingles I was kind of lucky.
