forgot to mention - itches like he77 and here's the sticker - the foot is mostly numb so itching does no good, cannot feel it to itch
husk, any progress?
hang in there, buddy...
Like a phantom itch, you mean?
Take care, husker.
Sozo if I take like and slap tje itch it helps a little on the itching
RP - the chill is staying at that; shivering comes and goes but very mild. hands and fingers are really cool, and I wanna sleep alittle but cannot relax - feel adrenalized
How's it going? Have you checked in with your doctor yet? (His office should be open for a little longer, I think...)
<crossing fingers>
Ah, nuts. Sorry to hear you're struggling with this again, Husker.
I have no feeling in my entire left arm and when it itches it drives me nuts. I find that really cold water helps.
Damn and hang in there, kid. Don't tarry re getting help... (but you know that already).
Hang in there, Husker. Praying for your good health ....

Why does it drive you nuts if you have no feeling?
it's wierd the feeling thingy without a show on it's like in sand and sandy feeling and with a shoe on it feels pretty normal
walking barefoot is no fun with a shoe on no problem at all- driving with shoe on is also no problem - and I imagine without it would be a nightmare
I know it sounds wierd if I slap the skin I get enough stimulation to help on the itching feeling
Hard to explain Tico. my arm was severely f**ked up from a charge and Ive got a chewed up hand but the real damage is to the nerves which, even though it has no sensation on the surface, will keep letting me believe that it itches way down deep . In that matter I can feel cold only when it gets very close to frostbite.
Husker, trust me, the cold water (very cold) does help me. If I get a spot itch I just take a cube and let it on my itch spot.
Were here for ya Husker, I hope thefever is quick in leaving
I sort of feel like I'm getting over it - but the past 5 1/2 hours have went by pretty fast - so if it's getting killed with out getting worse then that's the ticket.
<saying a prayer that when I come back here in the morning, everything will be back to normal>
if you don't hear from me please do now worry - I might feel I need to try and go into the office
Husker, I just discovered this thread and read through it painfully. You've been through a lot. Probably got a lot of new hair on your chest. My step-son had an infection of the blood and it was a nightmare to overcome. Hang in there and don't take anything for grant. Make the doctors think of you a lot. Keep on top of them. You have my warmest wishes and sympathy. But from what I've seen over the years, you can take it. But we can't, so get well.
thanks you everyone
JLN I hardly have a choice - if I and when I do go down I imagine it will be fighting tooth and nail - but you peaceful sounds good.
when I feel up to it I'll share a close call about a week ago - scared the he77 out of me and the closet 3 people I love.
ok - I went to work - couple nitemares sleeping last night - must have been the bad stuff moving out of my body - one can only hope. I'll be taking it easy and forcing everyone to come to my office instead of me being out and about.
Hey there! You take it easy, you hear me?! You need REST!!!
