Farking Chickpox as an adult

Post by Bob_The_Engineer »

Anyone else managed to survive 30 years of their life only to get chicken pox when most normal people are immune?

I have spent the last 2 days sweating like a pig, vomiting like a c*nt and itching like a tw*t. I actually lost feeling in my hands and feet last night which scared the crap out of me. And I had one of those awful 'need to shit and vomit at the same time' moments.

So I am off work for three days until I stop being infectious so I might just be able to hit level 50 with my Warlock :)

:eek:

I've managed to avoid it for 32 years...... Would be interesting to see how it affected me, I haven't physically puked for 16 years....

Keep the skin as moisterised as you can, the drier it is the itchier it is... There was an oil you could get to put in the bath but for the life of me I can't remember the name of it.... I'll post up if I remember. My kids have had them, they aren't nice.

Oilatum is what we used on our kids when they had dry skin. I think this is what you're thinking of.

Most normal people are only immune at 30 odd cos they had it as a kid... once you have had it its Very rare you get it again.

This has taken me over my sick leave quota for the year due to having Laryngitis last month for 2 weeks. However if work call me they have agreed to take that day as a full work day and pay me full pay. (I think this might have something to do with the internal CRM manager leaving and them wanting me to take over his job).

Did you know there are things called AntiViral medicine? I thought they could not fight viri but I am on them to stop me getting shingles.

Hang on - didn't they make you sign the non-disclosure agreement before they let you take those?

been around for ages, but its limited use. Its to stop new strains, that are resistant, evolving and taking over the whole world, or sumthin.
