Chicken Pox Multiple Times - Immune System Deficiency ?
Posted: 10-12-07 21:49pm

My 10 year old daughter has had the poxs 4 times. Each time she was seen by her Dr. How is possible, they dont know. Her titer has been checked and is low, she can get the poxs again. She has had 2 mild cases and 2 good ones. They will check her titer again in Dec. thats 8 weeks after her last spell of them. And if she has a low titer she will get the Vac. which could give her the poxs again. I think there is something else wrong with her immune system and this is an early warning sign. But can find anything about reocuring chix pox. She is normally a healthy child with cold and stomach bugs. Her only other heath problem is a heart murmer that she is having a echocardiogram in 2 weeks. any ideas

As it is a virus, maybe you can take her to some kind of specialist that deals with desease and prevention. I did not work with Ped's long but, this is the first time I have heard of having them more then once.
