CHICKEN POX VIRUS
by IDOELVIS, May 24, 2001 12:00AM
MY DAUGHTER HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED, ADD AND ODD. WHEN I WAS PREGNANT
WITH HER, I GOT THE CHICKEN POX VIRUS, BUT DID NOT GET THE CHICKEN POX, DURING THE PREGNANCY I BROKE OUT IN PURPLE WELTS. I WAS TOLD THAT THE VIRUS THAT CARRIES CHICKEN POX COULD CAUSE A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS. I CAN DATE HER BEHAVIOR BACK AS FAR AS INFANCY. COULD THIS HAVE BEEN A REASON FOR HER BEHAVIOR PROBLEM?

No, these conditions have not been linked to any virus or other such infection.
