Shingles and pneumococcal vaccines side effects

I had these vaccinations about a month ago.
I was given one in each arm. The only side-effect I had (and had been warned might happen) was tenderness in my left arm/ armpit, which lasted for about a week. But as I don't recall which jab was in which arm, I don't know which vaccine caused that.

For me personally - not immunocompromised - it was well worth the discomfort.

I've had pneumococcal which was fine but I had a massive reaction to part 1 shingles. I was very surprised as I'd never had any reaction at all to any of the umpteen vacs I've had over the years. I've got part 2 coming up. I'll go ahead with it as I definitely don't want shingles.

I have also received an invite and am immunocompromised.. will be watching this thread. My appointment is for late June.
Hoping marydoll will be along with some advice. 😊

I would give anything to have the new shingles vaccine. The one I had a couple of years ago isn’t as good as the current one ( which I believe is the one that used to be given to people with a compromised immune system?). So I may pay to have it done. I didn’t have a problem with the pneumonia/ shingles vaccines I did have. Shingles is something I really don’t want to have!
