So I'm a bit confused . In a month my child will get three combined vaccines. Are all the vaccines necessary ? Do you vaccinate your kids . I hear of children getting sick or having problems years later or worse ... Death . Which I would never want for my son 😭😪. Voice your opinion.
Vaccinate for chicken pox or let your child get over it naturally? Thoughts?

Since everyone is telling me to.. Here it is.. Well on mom life you stated your procedure was for a hole in your stomach.. But on instagram you "kicked cancers ass" and basically had throat cancer?.. I don't like liars!! Why lie?! I lost the people i loved most to cancer! That's not something to fucking joke about! I lost all respect for you! And if you really do have cancer why lie on mom life saying it was for a hole in your stomach?it just makes no sense to me!
You know you have children when... You get to work and notice that your pants have smudges of unidentifiable origin from the knee down. ?

lol. ok. I've been vacinated, had the chicken pox and had shingles as an adult. lol. so announcement alittle off.

How do you explain my husband then? He had shingles but he's never had chicken pox or had the vaccine and he got shingles. It is unlikely but obviously possible.
They think he was exposed enough to have the immunity but not actually get the chicken pox. Otherwise the Drs don't have an answer.

You can imagine his surprise when he got shingles. He was always worried about getting chicken pox as an adult and he got shingles instead.

Hmmm I was always taught if you didn't get the pox as a kid, you were prone to shingles as an adult.

It's NOT possible to have shingles without chicken pox. Chances are your husband had a very mild case of chicken pox as a child that went undiagnosed. And the vaccine is relatively new, so they are now discovering that booster shots may be necessary. The vaccine given in childhood will not protect an adult today. Also, the vaccine is made for the most common strain of the virus. There are other much less common strains that wouldn't be covered by the vaccine. Anyone else...

You can get chicken pox as an adult if you have never had it before, but you can only get shingles if you have the chicken pox virus in your system. Not everyone that had chicken pox will get shingles, but it is more common in the elderly. My family gets it early for some reason. I had it at 31. My mom got shingles at 49 and my cousin at 20.

The whole virus attacked my eye! Been seeing an eye dic since 4. Lifetime regime of drops, ointments, steroids, and surgeries (cornea transplants).
I forgot to add in my other reply, I also had to wear a patch on my eye in school during elementary years and at home til I was 18. Yea, def got made fun of as a kid for that too. Kids are cruel. No one wants to pick the girl with an eye patch for their dodgeball team LOL

Wow. I'm sorry Leslie. I would have picked you! I got shingles while I was nursing my baby. Putting him against me was the most excruciating pain I have ever felt! And I've gone through labor with 2 babies!

I thought shingles was the herpes virus???

Jenn. I really wish you would stop spreading false info!!! He had to have had an undiagnosed case of chicken pox as a child. That is a much more likely explanation than shingles appearing on him out of thin air!!! Do your research!!!

Then your husband is a medical miracle. Like op said, he may have had a case of chicken pox that went without notice, but you cannot have one without the other. I'm not trying to be mean, but I know for a fact it is how it works.

My brother had the CP vaccine and had both chicken pox and shingles.

Shingles is caused by the varicella-zoster virus(chicken pox). It is also known as herpes zoster. But it is NOT related to the herpes viruses that cause cold sores or genital herpes.

except chicken pox is deadly in adults, where shingles is not. if u miss a vaccination then what? I'd rather my kid have 1 week of the itchies than a whole life of shots.

Booster shots are probably necessary. As I said earlier. I also said that the vaccine protects against the MOST COMMON strain of chicken pox.

I had the chicken pox vaccine and STILL got chicken pox.
My nephew was vaccinated for chicken pox and he got shingles (not around the same time frame but still).

None of his siblings had it either. His mom is a nurse and I'm sure she would recognize chicken pox.

Jenn, it is very possible to miss the symptoms if it is a mild case. It would look like a few ant bites. He had chicken pox at some point in his life.
