Anyone ever had chicken pox as a child, that turned to shingles as an adult?

So i was 7 when i got chicken pox...i had shingles in 2022 after a stressful event in my life.
Anyone else had this happen?

Yep, got chicken pox when I was in preschool, then, oddly enough, got shingles when I was 30 right after getting my flu shot.

Chicken pox, yep, but not shingles. Not yet. I got the vaccine.

My mother had shingles seven years ago, she was in severe pain, and she's allergic to opiates and had to deal with it
