I got the original shingles vaccine but have not gotten Shingrix. It has a "black box" warning that people can get Guillain-Barre Syndrome which is why they mention it in their commercials. You can get GBS after any vaccination but they don't usually put a black box warning on them.

My late mom had shingles and it hurt like heck. I don't want to get shingles, but I am skeptical about how well the vaccine works (at this point, I'm skeptical about everything) and also don't want to get GBS.
GBS was one of the reasons why they took the flu vaccine off the market in 1976. I refused that vaccine and refused the Covid one.
A friend of mine got shingles in her eye at the age of 54. For reasons that I don't remember, her doctor told her to not get the first vaccine. He did recommend Shingrix so she got it. She said the stuff made her ill.
My husband got both shots of it and it didn't bother him.
