My grandson had chicken poxs real bad and
I was around him, I think I may have got
them but I am not sure. I think I had
chicken poxs as a child but not sure. My
question is can I get them again, and if I
do have them what do I have to do.

Chicken Pox Posted: 01-18-04 14:04pm
Yes it is possible to get chicken pox
twice. My son got them just before his
first birthday, then again when he was
about six.
And guess what! He got married nearly 3
years ago and did not dare tell his bride
that he felt ill as he did not want to
worry her, so the day of the wedding he
went to the church feeling awful.
After the ceremony he told his new wife
and they went on honeymoon only to return
the next day as he had shingles which of
course is the same virus.
