Chicken Pox Vaccination

My 11 year old son had the chicken pox a few years ago and a mistake at the doctor's office resulted in him getting the vaccination despite this. Are there any possible problems after already having had the disease AND the vaccination?

Skimming the package insert, it doesn't seem to have been studied. There are a list of adverse reactions to the shot, that perhaps you should watch for, such as Thrombocytopenia (including ITP), Stevens-Johnson syndrome, transverse myelitis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, Bell's palsy, non-febrile seizures, etc.
