So yeah, as the title says... I think I have chicken pox. Actually I'm pretty sure I do. First noticed symptoms Thursday. I'm already getting over a cold, but I noticed that one of the glands/nodes on the back of my neck was swollen and started to hurt. Didnt think much of it, figured I would keep an eye on it. Then that night, when I took my shower, I noticed 3 little blisters on my abdomen. Odd... ok I'll keep my eye on them as well. Next morning (Friday) I woke up and noticed some on my face. I'm like ok well if this gets worse I will go to the doc. Well needless to say I only made it through half my day at work. Started at 1, and by 3 I was not feeling well at all. Started feeling really tired and drained... and aching badly. I was boarding a flight and I thought I was going to pass out I felt so bad. Girl I work with said the things on my face looked like chicken pox... Noooooooooooo! I went through my childhood without ever getting it... my mom even purposly exposed me to it, so I would get it early and not have to go through this! I ended up feeling so badly that I had to leave work and I have never done that since I have been there. Well the aches and pains have continued, as well as more and more of these little blisters. Both nodes/glands on the back of my neck are swollen and super sore. I've looked online and from what I have seen I am sure it's the pox. Mom thinks so as well. So I called in to work for today and tomorrow and on Monday I am going to the doc's. I have 40 hours of sick pay, but I have no idea how long I will be out if it is indeed pox. Well anyway, enough of my rambling on, tomorrow I am going to try and get a picture to post. I am starting to look like a bizaar alien experiment gone wrong!
