I eventually got chicken pox aged 24!!!  If Coby does get chicken pox use e4 creme on the spots not calomine lotion, the doctors in glos are very anti calamine as it makes the itching worse! |

Spent most of the time sat in cold water and used e45 emolient as it really soothed the itching! and smeared my self in the cream too. I had spots every where from the hips up..and i mean everywhere!!  |

Its better he gets them now though hun |
