Woah! Rosy! I'm so sorry. But if you have it like I had it - the adult chickenpox, and I'm not talking about shingles here (I was 32) - you are in for a very rough time.  I had it for 3 weeks and it was 3 weeks of screaming hell. I spent most of it in bed and woke every night screaming my head off, in a cold sweat after soaking the sheets.

My Doc gave me stuff to stop me itching but I still have the scars. You need plenty of fluids and rest and stay away from mirrors. You won't like what you see. I'm glad you are with family because you are going to need them.

Get well soon, Rosy.
