I have had shingles and the shingles shot, so could or would I still get the rash? What I had several years ago was a little more spread out where this is for example on my waist it goes from one side across the front to the other side. That part of it seems to be in a straight line right along my waist. It is a type of blister and when
I am not thinking and rub my waist it is moist like blisters being popped. I can send a picture of the part on my waist but I feel a little uncomfortable showing one of my crotch area.

Detailed Answer:
Shingles can recur even after vaccination but it doesn't cross the midline.
There are many conditions which present as blisters but to have a clearer picture I need to see pictures of the affected areas.
