i must have caught it from my d.d who has had them over Christmas.

I feel 'confused' and rather doom laden. I'm covered in yellow filled blisters, they are every where, my mouth, ears, scalp,genitals.

My coordination seems to have gone bockedty, i saw my GP on friday and it's definately chicken pox. He says i may take up to 4 weeks to get better. I can't be ill for that long, has anybody had similar experience of chicken-pox?

Any advice welcome.

How are you today ThePathanKhansWitch?

Had a good sleep, feel much better today, bit nauseous still. I'll have to try and eat something.

Not felt so confused today, and off-balance rather than completely discordinant, so i must be getting better.

Spotty as the spottiest thing ever, i bet i get awful scars Sad, least of my worries now.
Thankyou for all your messages.

I had really close together spots and did not get any lasting scars except the original spots (1st ones to appear). Glad you are better! I really couldn't get out of bed for 10 days s o you might be in for shorter than 4 weeks, but DO REST, even if you feel better: you are not a baby Wink
