Remicade and shingles virus

I had at my GI’s office the new shingles virus late last week. I now am getting my 6 week remicade infusion.
The GI’s office mentioned nothing about the proximity of the vaccine to the remicade infusion but i know it is an issue. Oh well, I guess I just monitor if the remicade works during this infusion?
Thanks,

It's generally not recommended for us on immuno-suppressing medications to take "live" vaccines, like the shingles vaccine, so I am surprised your GI office gave you one.

Do some of us take live vaccines anyways? Yes. Are we okay afterwards? Yes.

Just notify your doctor's office should you get sick in the coming weeks.

A live vaccine, contains a live but weakened strain of the illness. The essentially take a human virus, put it in an animal for several itterations where it adapts to become effective in said animal, and put that virus back into humans. The now weakened virus, is no longer very effective in a healthy human. The virus is now very slow to colonize and very ineffective at reproducing within a human host, making it an easy target for a healthy human immune system. When our weakened immuine system faces a weakened virus the virus can sometimes gain the upper-hand, and infect us like a strong virus would. The odds are low of this, but it can and has happened in some immune-suppressed patients. Just stay vigilant and call asap should you suspect you're getting shingles.

Yes, my GI called me and told me it was not a live anti virus and hence it is not a worry. The infusion centre would not have infused me for two weeks after a non live anti virus so i simply didn't tell them about it.
Thanks,
