All this talk of Chicken pox is interesting. I too had a very severe case of
CP when I was 5 years old. I had shingles on my leg for a month when I was 13
(my mom thought it was poisen ivy and took me to the doctors when it didn't
clear up.

Then if davej is right I must have had shingles again because when I was 20 I
had a rash all over my body and my skin was extremely sensative (sore). TM
struck at 33. It would be interesting to know if there is a connection to TM
and chicken pox. This is also the first time I have heard the chicken pox
virus stays in your system.

Plenty of food for thought!!
