Was this chickenpox?

[MrsJamin]

Last Friday, 15 MO DS vomited and had a temp of 102. This continued off and on until Saturday afternoon where a few spots (like bad teenage spots) were on his ear. Sunday- Red spots all over and ear spots worse. Out-of-hours Doc said looks like chickenpox. However, Monday spots disappeared. Ever since he's been v whingey / sensitive in the day and up at night, sometimes with a temperature. Mon-Weds he was v sleepy too. Spots appear and then disappear a few hours later. I'm flummoxed whether this was a mild case of chickenpox or something else? Just don't know whether he's still contagious and whether he's 'done' the chickenpox. Any ideas?

Doesn't sound like chickenpox to me - only in that the spots keep disappearing. When mine had chickenpox the spot would appear like a bad teenage spot, then it would always crust over before disappearing. I'd go back to the doc and mention that the spots are coming and going...

Chicken pox don't dissapear they appear like blisters then scab over

yes that's what I thought. It's all a bit odd. If he's still not right tomorrow I'll take him to the doctors again. I was hoping that would be it and he'd get immunity from it next time.
