re: [] Chicken Pox--What should I do?

[Guest guest]

A number of medical studies describe immune-weakened individuals who develop

post-MMR measles, post-VZV-vaccination chickenpox. The appearance of those

diseases is often considered a sign of an underlying immune weakness.

Look at the article:

Immunization Of The Immunocompromised Host

The article is available as a pdf at:

Be careful with lingering VZV, which can migrate into the CNS and do so

intraneuronally. Usually, VZV establishes long-term residence within the

trigeminal nerve, however, in some individual cases, VZV can migrate more deeply

into the CNS.

Most -- but not all -- strains of VZV are responsive to acyclovir. The bigger

issue is your child's possible immune impairment (for whatever reason or

reasons) whereby the VZV-vaccination is now followed by chickenpox.

Subject: : Chicken Pox--What should I do?

My 7 year was sent home from school b/c he has gotten the chicken pox even

though he had the chicken pox vaccine when I didn't know any better.

Do I need to make sure he is getting bigger doese of Primal Defense or

Colostrum?

Does chicken pox affect his gut?
