Had chicken pox when I was young and recently had shingles. It was so painful but I got lucky and it was over in about a week. Still visible where it was though.
But in general I still think making your children just have chicken pox instead of vaccinating them is a common occurence here in Sweden as the vaccine isn’t part of the normal vaccination plan.
By the way, even if you don’t remember if you got smallpox as a child, vaccinate now against shingles!
Yes, there is a vaccine and based on people who have shingles, you really don’t want to get it.
