Hi everyone..
my 2 year old son just got chicken pox a few days ago..
i've already met a doctor who recommended we see the chicken pox thru at its fullest with no anti viral medication..
my friends on the other hand have been recommending me to get anti virals for my boy so that he doesnt have that many blisters all over his body..
i am torn.. my doctor says let him suffer now so he wont get the pox again in the future.. while at the same time its sad to see my son suffering..

what do you guys think? also has anyone tried giving the antiviral and later (months later) your kid contract the chicken pox again?

i gave him just a small cup of coconut juice.. wow.. the blisters appeared alot in just 1 night.. hoping it will be over soon.. calamine seems to help abit at first but once it dries up its back to scratching for my little hero..

its not about can afford or not.. but its my usual doc who doesnt want to prescribe it.. he says those who take antivirals will have chance of getting the chicken pox again later..
