Hi there! Thank you for your question. There’s definitely role for immunization for your case which is immunization following exposure to chicken pox.

In order to decide whether you really need the vaccination or not and if you need it, what type of vaccination suitable for you, doctors need to conduct further consultation.

There’s many factors to consider including your previous immunization history. You have the risk to get that infection but if you have completed your scheduled immunization before, the impact of the infection is much lesser.
