I had chickenpox as a child. A few years ago, my wife had shingles, and in January 2024, I had shingles on my neck and face. The photo below shows the effect, and I think mine was a mild case. It went from my left ear almost to the the corner of my left eye, and down my neck. If it had got into the eye, I may have lost sight in that eye. I still have soreness and itch in my left ear, making it difficult to wear hearing aids. I constantly want to poke my finger in my ear to scratch it. I had the vaccine about six weeks ago, and have been told I should have every two years. I would definitely recommend you have it, the disease is not pleasant.
