my question Obesity resulting from Chicken Pox?
Submitted by Anonymous on Sat, 2008-03-22 07:15.
I was a slim and active child. I had chicken pox at age 10 or 11, and it was like someone turned the light switch off. I had no energy any more and I started to lose athletic track races. I started to put on weight and was diagnosed with PCOS in my thirties. I did a web searach once and found one woman who had been slim until her twenties when she had chicken pox, and then had unexplained weight gain and she was eventually diagnosed with PCOS. Also I believe she did not change her diet at all.
Has any one else had this happen? Could Chicken Pox be a cause?
