Or try to help your little kids GET the disease, which offers a much stronger, longer lasting, natural immunity.
Which means that for people that didn't gain immunity from the vaccine (happens often with ANY vaccine) will get it later and later, and it will be nastier.
Vaccinations aren't required in any state (they *say* required but every state has exemptions), and the people I know who had no vaccines have much stronger immune systems than anyone else I know!
OP, hope you feel better soon. Try to not medicate yourself too much; quite a lot has been written about how the disease is worse the more you try to reduce the symptoms, so try to not reduce symptoms more than you have to!
Not gonna make this a debate about getting vaccinated vs not getting vaccinated but I to thought it was better if my kids simply got them. WRONG!!!!!
My middle child caught them the last day of school in the first grade. Two weeks later bingo he was covered. Two weeks after that my oldest not only covered but had them so bad he ended up getting staff infection. Two full rounds of antibiotics and two skin problems, two years later that were induced by the pox. These problems lead to plastic surgery. Of course two weeks after his pox my youngest got them and had lymphatic overload to the point she had to take anti-viral medication. Our entire summer spent ill, for no good reason.
The chicken pox of today aren't the chicken pox of our youth they are stronger, nastier, and more dangerous. If I could do it over again I would have got them the shot, but I can not, I am just blessed it wasn't worse and I can share my experience and advice with others.
OP feel better soon (passing you the Aveno Oatmeal lotion and a box of Epsom Salts)
