Wouldn't you have know by self diagnosis and family help? I mean chickenpox is quite distinguishable.

So what is it that you have Esso? Is it contagious?

Chickenpox is very distingishable and nowadays a trip to the drs isn't necessary unless you get one of the side effects (some can be dangerous) or if you are pregnant but you don't need a GCSE to figure out that you aren't pregnant Esso lol.....

Chickenpox is caused by a virus. If your doctor diagnosed you with chickenpox and then prescribed antibiotics to treat it, then you do not have a very good doctor. Antibiotics are not effective in treating viral infections.

Exactly, taking Anti'bs for a viral infection can actual be harmful and cause side effects.

Chickenpox only requires Anti'bs if the sores get a bacterial infection.

Yes, but in egyptian/esso7's case, it is more like BABY MAN Flu . . . not grown up enough to qualify as a MAN, [Wink]

Lebanese hairdressers are very funny, after you have escaped from the salon, with half-cut soaking wet hair. Last time I went - a fight broke out in the salon with the girls hissing and spitting at each other. Then one of them found my missing earring and started biting it to see if it was gold. I grabbed my earring and ran for it. [Big Grin]

There's a quite recent Lebanese movie precisely about hairdressers,called "Caramel":

Same thing with my ex fiance in sharm. When i was there a few years ago we went to hospital and she said it was chicken pox... i know very well it wasnt cause i have seen chicken pox a few times having had them myself, my step sister, brother, 2 of my kids. But she gave him 2 antibiotics and some other stuff.

Unbelievable! How could you get so wrong diagnosed by two doctors??? [Confused] Please from now on just take advise from a REAL professional.

Glad you're doing better, Esso. Wonder to what you had such a strong allergic reaction??
