Re: did you have the chicken pox when you were a little kid?
many many many moons I had a nightmare dream about a virus that lives in many of us that someday would be activated

and its like the shingles chicken pox

it hides in our spine later activated but STRESS or something just just makes you snap and BAM its activated...



for the older generation remember back to what vaccine shots you got?????

now that you have children you know our children get many many more shots not like the ones we got...


I personally think way back in the day they put something in us...


something that in the future they will turn something on or something I cant put my finger on what it is but this live dormant virus will be activated n many of us...


yes many of us have a dormant virus in us this is a fact

if you had the chicken pox many many years ago its in your spine

Re: did you have the chicken pox when you were a little kid?
I never had the chicken pox, my parents had me play around kids that had it and I never caught it. I eventually got a cow pox vaccine which was supposed to protect against chickenpox, but who knows if it will actually work.

All of the vaccines given to the children in the 50' s on have long duration dormant cancer and autoimmune disease virii. The body's immune system keeps them at bay until roughly middle age when the hormonal changes common to aging allow the diseases to emerge.

Everyone you know over 50 will be dead within 10 years from cancer or previously unknown autoimmune diseases ( shingles, lupus, IBS, MS etc)

This is the Genocide to end all genocides, and I've come to the conclusion that we all deserve it for being so willfully ignorant and complacent.

Re: did you have the chicken pox when you were a little kid?
I had the chicken pox as a small child, 5 or 6 years of age. I still have a few small scars on my face and elsewhere to prove it.

I infected my two children on purpose when they were small 4 & 1 years old.

I know they are protected, they never got this vaccine. Many things have been written about the vaccine not working and adults can get VERY sick form the chicken pox if they are not immune.

I know people who have had shingles--they did have the "real" chicken pox, but overall I believe it is pretty rare (shingles) and you have to be immune compromised. (like herpes)

I often think this too. If I knew then what I know now I wonder if I would wanted to have children.

Imagine if the next generation all decided not to have kids--everyone.

TPTB would be plum out of slaves, and the Earth would return to a state of wild balance and pristine beauty.

I fear the Karma of all the "trash" I've been responsible for using creating, the lives of all the animals I've eaten, my role in the pollution.....

I love my central heating, air conditioning, car, hot water, computer, cell phone, tablet, and flat screen W/ TIVO.

I love my kids, but feel the weight of the damage all these things have created and fear it is greater than the pleasure I get from them.

Off topic, but I would have preferred a "guild free" existence. But at 53 the idea of starting over living off the land is daunting to say the least.

As to the quote above I wonder if we all haven't agreed to this end as a solution at the soul level.

Re: did you have the chicken pox when you were a little kid?
I had chicken pox when I was young. I remember if one kid came down with it other kids in the neighborhood came over to play so they could be exposed. The younger you were the easier the illness. During the 50's early 60's you hoped your kid would catch them before they started school.

In my late 40's, when I was under a lot of stress, I had shingles. Strangest experience, it wasn't fun be it only lasted about a week.

I think the new ads are due to a new drug and it's the drug company hoping to cash in. You watch the commercial then you ask your doctor. Easier for the drug company to have patients asking for a drug then having drug reps knocking on clinic doors.

Time to get rid of all us Baby Boomers. I will not get the "shingles vaccine". It's ridiculous, not many people actually get shingles.

Re: did you have the chicken pox when you were a little kid?
A) They're promoting the hell out of the shingles vaccine because it costs the consumer about $150 a dose.

B) It's promoted to elderly people because it's only 'approved' for use in populations 50+ as that's where the testing was done (as shingles has a higher precedence in populations 50+.) It -can- be given to younger people, but it's an off-label use. Also because older people tend to be more willing to shell out $150 on a vaccine.

C) Shingles does really, really suck.

e: Just looked at the local public health website and it's $200, no idea what it would cost in the states but probably comparable.

its very very very painful
 Quoting: SeaPunk



I had chicken pox as a child and the vaccination.

Two years ago my 85 year old father had shingles. The upper right side of his chest front and back broke out in blisters. After these blisters broke and dried the pain started.

We took him to the doctor as soon as the blisters appeared and the doctor did not know what it was. He thought it was a rash. When the excruciating pain started we took him to the emergency and the ER doctor knew right away that it was Shingles.

My father is now 87 and still has the nerve pain from Shingles. He takes medication (Gabapentin) 2 times daily. The doctor stated that he will most likely have to live with the pain as it is permanent nerve damage.

I do not get the flu shot or take any medications but I am thinking of getting the Shingles vaccine. I don't want to go through what my father is experiencing. I am his full-time caretaker so I am well aware of the pain shingles cause.

Also, a nurse told me that she and her twin sister both had shingles when they were sixteen.

Should I get the vaccination? Help me decide.

Try to find out if the fact that your father had shingles means you might be more likely to.

I would try to research this online or in books, and THEN ask your MD.

then make a choice.

Re: did you have the chicken pox when you were a little kid?
Dear GinaK49,

My own choice would be to not risk the vaccine. My own luck has been lousy with meds.

If that is the case for you too, then that is another piece of the puzzle.

Also, your race and gender might play a role in how likely you are to develope shingles in the first place.

Re: did you have the chicken pox when you were a little kid?
Was the shingles virus placed in the chickenpox vaccine? Thats what I would like to know.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 31938047


The SAME virus (Varicella zoster virus, VZV) expresses itself as two distinct medical conditions: chicken pox and shingles.

A person who has never had chicken pox, no matter what age they are, will first experience the first medical condition: chicken pox.

Once one has experienced the medical condition called chicken pox, that individual is at risk for exhibiting the medical condition known as shingles for life.

"Shingles" is a medical condition that is caused by a dormant chicken pox virus and is harbored in somatic nerve endings that re-emerges (begins replicating itself, making more of itself) when an individual experiences nutritional, and/or physical, and/or emotional stress.

Shingles can be accompanied by excruciating pain, but that does not always happen.

Yes, the likelihood of experiencing shingles increases with increasing age. This is because our immune systems weaken with age.

However, young people (in their twenties and thirties) can, and do, experience shingles if/when they go through very stressful periods in their lives.

My mom who in her late 60's had shingles across her knees.
Horrid pain and she still has the scars after an E.R visit and several treatments.
Very evil disease and the onset is sudden as in over night.
More than meets the eye with this.
She still claims pain around her scars.
