Definitely the headaches can be from dehydration and if they had problem taking blood, that is a sign of dehydration - if they did blood tests. Not a good sign to have chicken pox as an adult as it is much worse for you as an adult than as a kid. Keep well. Remember headaches could be migraines - numbness up the body, nausea, floaters, hate bright lights. If it describes any of those then you are suffering from migraines and again they can be caused by bright lights, dehydration, lack of sleep, diet.

Go Hunni!!!

hi,

Oh dear, just take it easy, it's frustrating because these things just require time before they pass. I guess you need plently of TLC until your body recovers.

I hope your scans show nothing serious, headaches are strange they can be cause by infinite things I just recently had a CT scan too to check out my noggin but nothing was there.

Lots of water and rest, I know I hate when people say this but they are important.

Feel better soon!!

Hi Dee,

Well at least you know now why you feel so shitty, chicken pox will do that to you as will dehydration. Lots of water and plenty of rest young lady (sorry, sounding like a mum now).

I'd say the headaches are definitely linked to the dehydration, and could also be the chicken pox.

Take care of yourself luv, lots of rest OK
