I thought you couldn't get chicken pox if you had already had them?

[cfurrey 53]

Yes u can most commonly only twice! If u have them severe enough the first time then its really hard to get them again but in all actuality u can get them as many times as you body allows until it builds good enough resistants to it!

I thought that once you had chickenpox you were more likely to get shingles rather than get chickenpox again. Obviously I'm wrong. It must be horrible - I remember how annoying it was when I was a kid. Best wishes for a speedy recovery, and remember not to scratch!

I had the pox 3 times. As a kid they werent really bad. I got them again about 19. Only about 6 spots showed up. And again when I was about 23. No spots then but confirmed with a blood test.I felt run down but not really flu like. I lived in different parts of the country each time and it must have been a different strain. Have been exposed several times since 23 and never did get them again. Hopefully never again.
