Day 7

Had a good night slept through to 7am, but got up once at 3am sweating, but fell back to sleep. Scalp feeling much better. Face still a little itchy but the sores are scabbing over nicely. No new sores that I have noticed. Been feeling ok, still eating well, drinking lots of juice. Everyday been oberving my oral hygiene routine which is important. Sores on gums and in mouth meant needed to be very gentle. And also been using an antibacterial mouthwash [Please seek your medical advice always].

Cough seems to be dying down a bit too, throat seems to be getting better too.

10:15 Body temp 36.9C (98.4F) Feeling ok, showered gently washing hair gently with baby shampoo. Did not use any soap on body and have not since getting chickenpox.

19:00 Have tickle in throat and chesty cough again!

Day 231

Most of the brown scars have not pretty much vanished. Once or two very faint ones left. Quite a few little craters but can't really see them on the face. One larger crater on cheek but thats ok, got used to it now. Have stopped applying the Mederma and Bio-Oil everyday. Just put them on now and then. Few brown scars on body particularly around the waist, they will remain.

Day 1

It was the afternoon. I had been working at my computer most of the day. My neck was starting to ache. I just assumed that was due to the fact I was looking down at my computer. When I got home, my body was aching, and I felt hot and feverish. I could feel my lymph nodes at the back of my neck were swollen. My arms were aching too. I thought to myself that I was coming down with a cold or the flu. I just took some pain killers and went to bed.

Day 8

A good night sleep, took no pain killers before bed. Felt pretty good most of day. A slight cough. Scalp and face mildly itchy but largely scabbing over now. Few yellow liquid filled boils on body, they were the late comers. Still spending time in bed relaxing. Had a shower, washed hair with baby shampoo, but body with water. After shower filled sink with warm water, and add Olay mild face wash and dabbed face lightly using a flannel. Felt great after. Lots people giving advice not to pick or scratch the scabs or they will scar. Whenever I get a itch that's unbearable i gently touch the spot and itch usually goes away.
