Hello... I think that I may be getting chickenpox. I am 26, and saw my doctor today for issues unrelated to chickenpox. Before the doctor left I had her look at a "rash" that I noticed when I woke up this morning on my stomach/back/sides. Right away the doctor asked me if I've ever had chickenpox, which I haven't. My question is: what does a doctor do for you if you have chickenpox? Is it completely necessary that I go see a doctor if I have problems further than they are? (I currently have a sore throat and have had severe fatigue lately... ) I don't have health insurance, and I'd prefer to not see an MD if this is just something that needs to work it's course and then will be done.

Thanks to everyone for any responses!
