I had the shingles vaccine, and still got herpes zoster (mild case.) Can I get i!
Question: Unfortunately, yes. Some people just don't react to vaccines well. Happens sometimes. It could be that if you get the vaccine again that second dose will push your immune system up over the edge into full immunity. If not, it does mean that if you get shingles, it will be a milder case.

IF you had chickenpox then the virus is already in your body.
I dont' know of any vaccine that will work for something you already have, plus some vaccinations give you the condition they are intended to prevent. All cases of polio currently are the result of vaccinations, I heard.
So that's probably the explanation.
Yes, you can get it again.
