This is so not funny... I'm sorry this happened.

Please keep an eye on how it progresses and if need be, go to a doctor and show him/her the burned area. Maybe you could put some ointment on it, something soothing that's used for burns, if you have that, otherwise (if the burns aren't too bad) some aloe vera gel might help soothe things (used for sunburns).

Thanks Marleen

It's actually healing a lot faster than I expected, I can even use that finger normally now, which is excellent. The swelling isn't constant anymore either.
I've been very lucky, it could have been a lot worse.

And as an added bonus, this gets me out of cooking any dinners for a while

Cake,
back to the point,
It's the sleepwalking,
I'm starting to wonder about myself (always have a little bit)...

But, I haven't slept correctly for a WEEK!
I either sleep all day and night, or all day, and Not at night, for instance, no sleep last night, at all!
But, slept most of yesterday.
(Thanksgiving and Christmas are two days I'd rather spend alone)...

Anyway,
it's not much different than normal.
And, I can't figure it out.
I'm guessing that what I should do is to move to alaska, or (Siberia) get meself a harnes made, and get some excercise pulling sleds...
At least the dogs might like me!

grrrrRRRR.

Anyhows, I just don't know the answer!

How long has this been going on with you, now?
For me, it seems to go back to '83.
That's too long a time, especially when there's no cure in sight.

Be well!
and
Have Fun!


Pete
