Symptom narrative

A few days after my Shingrix shot, I developed a red rash on my lower back. Comparing my rash to images of Shingles online, it looked pretty similar. Red, bumpy. Not itchy, not painful unless I bumped it or rubbed up against it. It was more sensitive than painful. Lasted maybe two weeks and then went away.
