Chickenpox

S., I am fairly certain you have had the chickenpox. We were unable to come up with any other explanation for your spots. I am sorry you had them, but I am very glad you got them after you had been vaccinated. Your case was extremely mild, with maybe 40 spots total, no itching and no fever.

L., I have absolutely no idea if you have had the chickenpox. I am sorry I can't answer that question for you, since it may be an issue at some point in the future. You had a single spot. It looked just like your sister's spots. It was itchy, and you put a few scratches on your tummy while scratching at it. It's gone now, though, and we're left wondering if it was a chickenpock, or a random bug bite.

M.W.
