Symptom narrative

The first SHINGRIX vaccine was administered 10/23/2024. I did not notice any changes. A few days after 12/27/2024 SHINGRIX vaccine I noticed hives in areas I don't normally get hives. The were presented on thighs and ankles. I read this is not uncommon. It was on 1/17/2025 that I noticed I had NOT gotten any of my usual dermatographia hives since the second dose. On 1/20/2025 I saw my first dermatographia hive in the usual places. I still see hives on occasion but only about once ever 2 weeks. This is a decrease from the multiple times a week prior to the SHINGRIX vaccine. I made note in doctor site portal but did not visit medical staff.
