maybe you need to have your neuro evaluate you for the numbness in your arms.

please let us know how you are.
You know... normally I run burns under cold water right away, I'm actually a little fanatical about it. I just didn't think I actually got myself with the water, and I was busy making dinner so I didn't that time. That would figure that it would be the time a REALLY needed to. I plan on talking to my neuro about the hot cold sensation next time I see her, which should be soon.

Thanks for the advice.
