Off topic: Anyone know what ChickenPox looks like?

May 14, 2006

Ok, I know that atleast my youngest some was exposed to ChickenPox, so very

possible for my daughter. Sorry I am coming here to ask off topic, but I called

our local ER advice nurse, and she was RUDE telling me that it was not an

emergency question, so she would not give me the info needed. On Friday me

daughter threw up 3X and had a low grade fever. Yesterday she was tired and

cranky, but feeling a little better. I did notice that she had these pimple like

spots (no white heads) 2 on the side of her face, then 1 on her back, then 1 on

her theigh, and 2 on her leg. The ones on her back and theigh look th emost

irritated. They are all raised, and red. I dont see a blister yet (like the

internet tells you they get). So far (havent stripped her yet this morning to

really check) no more. Could this be ChickenPox or maybe something else? None of

my kids are immunized for them. She's still too young, and I didnt think it was

necessary for the others. She also has had some loose

poops and had a little cough for about a week. Maybe due to a cold or

allergies?
