Hi Bailie. I think that I was vaccinated a few yrs after my transplant, (but I got shingles anyway) last Fall. They were super painful, and no matter whether I was sitting or standing or laying down, my clothes would rub against them; they were on my right thigh. I have known some people who have gotten them when they were the same age as I was, and these people did not have weakened immune systems like we have. I had a hard time sleeping for a few days, but they healed pretty quickly once I started taking an anti-viral.
