My recommendation is get vaccine!  I found two little blips of rough skin
and had hubby look. I first thought ant bite as I had been out picking figs
and there were ants and wasps. By Tuesday, it was clear I had something.
I was pretty sure it was shingles despite having had vaccine. Hubby had
a Wednesday dermatology appointment that I was able to swap with my
later one so started quickly on antivirals.

Between the vaccine and timely start on meds, I am lucky to have had a very
 mild case with minimal discomfort. It is beginning to clear already!
Whew!
