Makes me wonder,,,,, I never got the Pox. My Mom made me stay in my Sister’s room and play with her for days,,,,yuck! Had the mumps though. I have a feeling that I might still need the shot?
Dear Dr.,
You should get a blood titer for chicken pox antibodies to see if you have any immunity. If you have no immunity, get the chicken pox vaccine... You DO NOT want to get chicken pox as an adult. It is extremely painful - I know someone who caught it from their preschooler (who got it because he wasn’t immunized). His mouth and throat were covered in very painful blisters, as well as his entire body.
Sincerely,
