Symptom narrative

Baby had 3 nights of fever and has broken out in entire body of chickenpox. face, hands, arms, stomach, legs. Multiple spots covering everywhere. It started 7 days post vaccine and the rash showed up after fever went away. He has been extremely fussy. I had read that children with eczema were advised to never receive smallpox vaccine. Now I?m wondering if the same should be for varicella. I feel like we gave him chickenpox.
