Can you get chickenpox from someone who has shingles?
Yes, it is possible for someone to get chickenpox from a person who has shingles, but it's not easy. You can only get chickenpox from someone with shingles if you come in direct skin-to-skin contact with wet or weeping lesions. Once the lesions are crusted over, you can't get it. Since you haven't had chickenpox, which is the same virus as shingles (that you've now been exposed to), you'll probably end up with chickenpox.
