I went to my doctor who checked my previous bloods and told me that it showed I was immune and had anti-bodies to chicken pox. The doctor told me I should be fine seeing as her pox were scabbed, I have had chicken pox previously and my bloods showed that I was immune. I am still worried because all I can think about is this womanWomen's way breathing on me for 5 minutes!! I know I am being paranoidParanoid personality disorder Paranoid schizophrenia Schizophrenia - paranoid type, but I cant help it!! Do you think given my bloods showed I was immune I will be okay? Even if all her pox weren't scabbed over and there was a possibility she was still in the contagious faze?
it sounds like youre fine. and i never heard of anyone getting chicken pox twiceTwice-a-day. and its been five days already. wouldnt there be signs of it by now? it sounds like youre fine.
you should be fine. i only had a mild case as a child, but my OB said that was enough to keep me safe during pregnancy. i worked in childcare at the time so i was concerned. if she was scabbed over, she wasn't contagious. chicken pox is contagious before they pox show up, and until they scab.
I know of many people who have gotten chicken pox twice- it is actually common. There wouldn't be signs of it on you yet, as there is a long incubation period. But, you are ok because your blood test shows you have the antibodies and therefore are immune.
