Can Chicken Pox Happen Twice?

I'm on MC today. It started with nausea, headache, a bit of spots on my body n slight fever yesterday evening. Even in the MRT, on my way bck from work, I felt a bit different. I quickly popped 2 tablets of panadol n slept early. Ths morning whn I woke up i had : slight fever, running nose (only on the right nose hole, d other side kinda blocked) bodyache, a painful throat (even my ears hurt whn i try to swallow) and more spots (sm are itchy!!) on my body. And the spots are itchier n seem to have multiplied!!

I went to dr, even took a nap at the waiting area cos there were so many other patients before me - at least or 9. Whn i showed dr the spots, he said it may or may not be chicken pox. Could be allergy also. He gave me some meds n cream. Wanted to take only AM MC cos I have loads of work to do but he gave me 1 day instead cos i gotta monitor cos it may really been chicken pox. Suddenly i thought to myself, alamak ther's 3 pregnant ladies in my office, I better not be near them. So full day MC is the best option for me.

But seriously, can chicken pox happen twice (any medical personnel out thr who can answer this)? I've had chicken pox 9yrs ago but i remember a lot of ppl saying tht my chicken pox is not full blown so i may get it again. Mine dried up much earlier thn other ppl. On the other hand, I've read some website tht once u get chicken pox, u're in a way immuned against it for life.

I really hope its not chicken pox cos I already have plans lined up for Fareez's bday & our 11yrs "anniversary" nxt week. And I am so afraid of the scars chicken pox may leave. Of cos I'm scared, the wedding is in a few mths time!!! Boohoo....But of cos if its really chicken pox, i have to bersyukur tht its happening now instead of a date much nearer to the wedding.

Well in the meantime, i still dunno wht it is...gotta monitor till tomorrow morning. A few more spots have apeeared n still itching but i can still tahan. If it gets worst, I need to see dr again. Wish me luck!

The Start of 7.5days Away Frm Work...

Today marks the start of my seven & a half days away from work, physically n hopefully mentally*
I'm OFF TO MALDIVES for holiday!!!! Yipeeeeeeee!!!!!...Ya rite? I wish!
I've got my exam next week. Over the next 7 days, this book should be my companion :


Did u notice tht I used the word "should". Yes, cos thts wht I shd really do. With a book tht has 7 parts, 15 chapters & 688 pages, i shd be just studyg over the next 7 days. At least 2-3 chapters a day on the average to be able to make it for my exam on 8 Nov. And since I can expect to jalan raya and have guests coming ths weekend, I have to put in extra for the weekdays. Kinda worried but hopefully I can make it, Insya-Allah. I just cant study way in advance, I'll forget! Since morning, I've been printing out the neccesary lecture notes from the school website and sorting out my study material. I knw, I knw, thts smthg I shd have done earlier. Anyway, I plan start after my Asar prayers and cover at least till Chapter 2 by tonite n then probably another 3 chapters tomorrow. I have such a short attention span n I can get distracted by soooo many thgs...Please, please Huda, please be more disciplined ths time!

Okie folks, wish me luck! I need it. Hehe
