My family is now having chicken pox!

May I ask where do you live so that I can visit you to pass the virus to me? I dont mind getting a 2nd round of chickenpox, since I can get paid MC! :lol:

I just recovered and spread it to my son (3.5 yo). This is despite having immunisation at 1 yo, should ask for my money back! The PD said after immunisation should have only about 20 pox. But he is having pox all over him, poor thing!

He is taking anti-viral medication, anti-itchiness medication plus we put calamine lotion all over him! Bathing is a must, aiyo, how to tahan? But I found that even with bathing and could not use the scrub, my body itch after one week! So glad to be able to use the towel to gently sponge off after I recovered 2 weeks later!

We bath as usual and after that put calamine lotion. The clothes also must change and wash separately otherwise will infect others in the home (well, almost everybody in our house kerna despite keeping my clothes separate!).

Now my hubby just kerna so boy and hubby on MC for the next couple of weeks. Just as well since my maid going on home-leave for 2 weeks (she has not kerna touch wood!) and my hubby is at home to help me look after my boy!

As for food, we all eat as usual, including chicken, eggs and such. Don't think we use dark soya sauce so not an issue. Also cooked barley water to drink. Others said Ling Yang is good to cool down the body temperature. Oh well....

Oh dear

Do take care of yourself and family.

I too managed to avoid it until in my mid 20s many years back. That too only because DH (then boyfriend) got it first and I refused to NOT take care of him :lol:

Don't think its passe, if it is, why would they have come up with the vaccination.

Desertwind, your boy got vaccinated already still kerna chicken pox ah? I was just thinking of sending DD for chicken pox vac., but now having second thots…cos the vac is not cheap and if it’s not effective, then not worth taking it right?
