Chickenpox risks for immunosuppressed

Another day, another case of advising a fellow vasculitis patient who's had a chickenpox exposure. In this case the immunosuppressed father of a young child. I never had chickenpox as a child, and caught it in 1998, aged 25, newly immunosuppressed. I caught it from a stranger - still no idea who. I was lucky to survive, and spent a week in hospital in Dundee, in isolation, on antiviral drips. Chickenpox can kill immunosuppressed adults. Please folks take care with chickenpox if you have any relatives on immunosuppression drugs. Including arthritis patients, but also many others like me.
