I am going through the shingles now. How much less of an impact with the shot? Are you talking from experience?

Mine is on my right side and around to the middle of the front with a few rash spots on my back. I went to Urgent Care and they gave me a pill prescription to ease the symptoms. I never had any itching and the tenderness is gone and now if feels like someone kicked me in the ribs. Hopefully that feeling will go away next week.
