How did your doctor diagnose you as chicken pox? Second time varicella infection usually presents as shingles and not chicken pox. Did you start antiviral treatments?
There is no particular diet to follow. Drink plenty of water. You can take fruits except grapes and oranges. And avoid coffee. Staying hydrated is the key.
