So, I go to sleep last night. I'm ok. I wake up, and I have this bizarre painful rash on my right side. I put pictures of the grotesqueries in a folder called WTF. How nasty!!
UPDATE:
WOO-HOO!! I have a POX!

I had them for the second time at the age of 22. I was in bed for 3 weeks! It was awful. Itchy and awful. I didn't want to lay down because of the weird feelings of laying on my pox, yet I was too sick to stand all day. It was truly a frustrating experience. I still have pox marks every here and there. I couldn't help it. If you're dying to itch, I'd suggest lightly rubbing them with a socked hand. You might also want to try oatmeal baths - I've heard they dry out and get rid of the booboos. Sea Salt is also a good thing, I just don't know if it's good for pox. Just don't go with calmine - it never worked for me, just made me feel mucky as well as itchy.
Wow. I'm a windbag today, aren't I?
Hope you feel better soon!!!
