Myocardial infarct/chicken pox
by skmuggs, Dec 31, 2007 12:16AM
My husband had a myocardial infarct on 22Dec/07. He required a STENT. My grandson has chicken pox with last spots erupting on 29 Dce/07. When is it safe for my husband to spend time with his grandson?

I would ask a doctor about this to be 100% SURE. Chickenpox is highly contagious, they say until all the pox have formed scabs. I'd wait longer. I'd wait a LOT longer if your husband has never had chickenpox. Please call your husband's doctor for specifics on this.
