Chicken pox?

hi there

everyone in my family has had chicken pox- all except me

will i get it??

i was working once in a hall where university students stay and one of them had it, i was a bit scarred but i still went in his room to do a check up on some stuff but i still never got it

im positive i never had it

is that weird? anyone else who never had it and thinks they got their immunity from their siblings??
Answer:
you can get shots for that now and most likely you did, but didnt realize it, they came out just after my daughter had the chickenpox, in the 80s
Just so you know...the older you are the harder you get them...in other words..if you get them at an older age...it's WAY more painful..sometimes requires hospitalization. You didn't get your immunity from your siblings...your mom just did a GREAT job of keeping you away...if i were you i would ask my Dr about getting the Chicken pox vaccination-yes even at your age-what ever it may be...the older they are-the harder they fall...sorry but that's the truth...hope that helps
your mom should have set you close to your siblings, like that other person said it's a LOT worse when you're older... you won't get immunity from siblings heh.
