Measles parties is the stupidest thing I heard. It is not chickenpox (although even chickenpox instead of vaccine causes risk of having shingles once you get older), it can cause serious health issues and even death.
I had it 19/20 I was totally untreated by the time I saw a doctor, it already ruptured all the blistered and ooze all the liquid. I still have scars to this day, plus some nerve damage. It was a small rash, but it’s numb there. My phn was pretty mild
I got it earlier than normal, usually it is given at 50+, I think it is because of side effects and in my case it were the worst I ever had.
I had 2 doses, first one was largely non issue, except I went to Costco next day to do shopping and day after I felt like I had a long hike.
The second dose really scared me, but next day I had a vertigo that lasted few days. I couldn’t walk in a straight line, if I lied in a bed it felt like I was spinning. I thought I will end up disabled because of it, fortunately after 3 days it started to pass.
Never had any vaccine reaction this scary.
I have some theory about it; perhaps the vaccine amplifies signals from nerves or something i.e. in first dose I got tired more than I should (from just waking in store for one hour), with second dose, next day I actually went to some bounce castle thing with my kids and jumped there a bit and I think that triggered it.
So if you are getting the shingles vaccine best to just stay home and rest for few days.
On the shingles subreddit, someone got it before 50, and it gave them some kind permanent issue. Don’t try to aggressively pursue shingles vaccine before 50, because there hasn’t been significant studies on it. The subreddit got pretty anal and restricted the sub, because people were being called out for not having shingles, when they keep posting " is this a shingles rash, when it clearly its something else"
Interesting, do you remember what the permanent issue was? Not being able to keep balance for 3 days seriously scared me, but everything returned to normal.
i dint know i had phn, until i visited that sub, it only lasted a couple years though. its nerve damage, mostly at the site where the scars is, its numb where it is, and hypersensitive touch surrounding skin. also a wierd spasm where the scars are if i poke aggressively. shingles cause all sorts of sensation abnormalities, once you have siginifcant scarring(which indicates alot of damage) the size was only larger than a quarter, compared others(where you see back to front rashes). i knew 2 people who had cranial shingles(which affects the eyes )
Had shingles at 20, definitely would’ve been worse if I had shingles later in life. Even with the chickenpox.vaccine it doesn’t prove full immunity, people have been getting a wild infection and then shingles anyways, , it’s just the initial chickenpox is less severe
That anti-vax rhetoric and “measles party” rhetoric are so unbelievably bad, I think it’s psyops put forth by foreign governments meant to kill Americans deliberately. And with Hegseth removing large portions of cybersecurity, it’s only going to get worse.
Yes you are right. The covid pandemic was also masterfully used to spread other conspiracies (that’s how my family members got infected with the propaganda), and that it caused many Americans to die was a bonus to them.
I’m just gonna say, I got lucky with where my shingles hit and it suuucked. It was just my side. I have a friend who got out across their face. I got very lucky.

Have had shingles twice, in my mid 20s and mid 30s, wouldn’t recommend.
At least I got diagnosed soon enough to be medicated…

For anyone not in the know, if you had chicken pox you’re at risk for shingles. I’ve heard it’s shear hell and got the shingles vax.
I think you need hit a few times? I’ve done 2 in the last 2 years, no side effects. Except for, ya know, not getting shingles.

It’s so stupid I literally think it’s an attack on US citizens by hostile foreign governments

Sorry, was this meant to a different comment? I don’t like the move Hegseth did, but I’m confused how this relates to measles.

Neck for me. They got the paperwork ready to see an eye specialist if there’s any sign that it might reach my eyes. Luckily didn’t.
