I've just caught chickenpox for the first time at 31! Had several exposures to the virus as a child but was always lucky. Started a week ago (Mon) with just two small red patches, by Thursday evening I had a few more and confirmed it with the nurse on Friday. Back in work tomorrow (Weds) I think and I'm not really that itchy, more bogged down with a heavy cold, think my immune system was vulnerable so it decided to use me as its latest host! Not sure whether I'm more or less likely to pick it up again, we'll see.
