Hey all, I just felt the need to share in my misery.

Was sick over the weekend. Got what I thought was an allergic rash on Monday. But then my doc confirmed the worst...

So I'm now confined at home for the next week or so. I've been doing some reading, watching tv and spending way too much time online. Sounds perfect except the compulsion to scratch my skin to shreds strikes me every 3 seconds or so.

Waah!!

Any and all words of sympathy will be appreciated.

That sucks.
How have you managed so long without getting them?
Hope they're gone soon and don't scratch!

Chicken Pox, that happened to me too. I was convinced it couldn't be, caus I had had them when I was 9, but I went to the doctor at a clinic, and he said my childhood affliction must'v been a mild case. The immunity won't build up if you're not hit with it hard, so this is a word of warning to all of you who think you're safe cause you had it as a kid--if you had it, you better have had it bad! Cause there's nothing worse than getting the pox when you're 22. It was all over my face, I couldn't go outside, and all my housemates avoided contact with me too, justifiably so, but it's never good to feel like a leper. Only a mommy will touch you in that state, that's why you're supposed to get it as a kid. I spent a week in baking soda bath water--it helps. I permanently stained a lot of my clothes with calamine. I got so feverish I tried to call my mother at the hight school. She's a high school teacher. I tried to call her at 6 pm in July. I couldn't remember my home phone number. It was the worst being sick experience of my whole life, and I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. And yes, I have scars on my forehead. My deepest sympathies.

Due to my dearest sister's (Psyrel) run in with the chicken pox, I am planning on getting the vaccine really soon.
Just got off the phone with her and she's bored like hell - watching TV and spending tons of time online.... wish I had the time to just laze around these days

Hope you get better soon T.
