No one in my family remembers if I had chickenpox or not. I don’t so it would have happened when young if it happened. If you get a shingles shot without ever having had chickenpox pox, is it a problem?

Shingles is caused by the same virus which causes chickenpox. So, a shingles vaccine basically covers chickenpox.
