Please forgive my curiosity... Did you perhaps have chickenpox years ago? Shingles can suddenly occur at any point afterwards. Correlation ("I got vaccinated, then I got shingles") does not necessarily prove causation.

I’m aware. However, It is a correlation in the literature. Altho it too, months to clear and endangered my eye, it was relatively nothing compared to the RSV vax, which reacted about 5 days after the vax. And was considerably more serious.

but did you have chicken pox at an earlier age is the question that needs answering. That fact has far more influence on shingles than any other you mention.
