Hi I thought this would be a good place to ask ...
I'm questioning getting my 4 year old vaccinated against chicken pox, she was diagnosed with type 1 just over 2 years ago and I'm feeling a little worried about the effect the pox may have on little one due to her diabetes.
I thinky worry stems from I have had two close friends and their children had a very bad reaction to chicken pox which included seizures and the other a swelling on the brain.
I wondered, anyone had their child vaccinated and how ill were they from the vaccine?
Parents that have been through chicken pox with diabetes, do you think it effected your child worse or am i worrying too
Much?
I know America vaccinate against it but here it's not routinely done.
Would be greatful for your thoughts. X
