Chicken pox

I work at a daycare and one of the children was diagnosed with chicken pox. Should I be worried? Should I call my doctor and let her know I've been exposed to it?

Id call your dr, I was vaccinated and had chickenpox twice as a child. When I had blood work at the beginning of my pregnancy it showed im still not immune to chickenpox. Point being you never know, it doesnt hurt to notify your dr.

They say you only have them once, it's like being vaccinated for them.

As long as you have had the chicken pox or the vaccine you will be fine!

If you've had it before, you're fine. I've been exposed to ring worm, chicken pox, lice and mrsa so far since the school year started. Blech

Have you had chicken pox? A call to the dr never hurts, it's what they are there for. Good luck!

Shingles- know the facts

Shingles- know the facts Shingles is caused by chicken pox. If you have been vaccinated or have never had chicken pox then you will never get shingles. Residual chicken pox virus lives dormant in the nerve cells closest to the brain and spine. Later in life it can "reactivate" and spread up the nerve to the skin. It will affect only one half of the body at a time. It will look like chicken pox, but it will hurt, not itch. It is unbelievably painful! If you get a blister near your eye it can cause vision loss. It is usually triggered by a weakened immune system or stress. It is only contagious to those that have not been vaccinated AND have never had chicken pox. It doesn't matter to me if your kids are vaccinated or not. Mine are, so they are safe. I just want to make sure that you know the facts about what you are subjecting your children to later in life if you choose not to vaccinate for chicken pox. This concludes my public service announcement. Have a good day!
