Shingles shot?
What do you all think of getting the shingles shot .
I wonder if it will help or make me reactivate?

6 weeks improvement, but a way to go.... reactivated EBV
| What It Measures | April 2 | May 18 | What It Means |
|---|---|---|---|
| VCA IgM — Active virus right now | 49.6 (positive ❌) | <36 (negative ✅) | HUGE WIN. The virus has stopped being actively aggressive. T |
| VCA IgG — Past exposure (lifelong marker) | >600 | >600 | Stays elevated forever once you've had EBV. Stable = good. |
| EBNA IgG — Long-term immune memory | 390 | 400 | Slight rise is actually normal as immune system builds durable memory against EBV. |
| EA IgG — Older active phase marker | >150 (high) | >150 (high) | Still elevated. Expected to drop over next 3–6 months now that VCA IgM has cleared. |
I have been using valtrex 2 grams a day, hyperbaric 3 x week for 30 minutes and not exercising - only dog walks. I am trying KPV peptides next. Feel so relieved to get the IgM negative, now to work on lowering viral load since affects me with migraines.
