Sporanox.

Ask for it by name.  It's an antibiotic commonly prescribed for exactly what seem's to be ailing you.  I know they come tough in Texas, but get to a doctor.  Once that nail fungus stuff sets in, it can be a bear to clear up.  The sooner the better.


Loved the New HS logo on the first Pic, by the way.  Too bad you can't sneak it onto the "shaker of the red sweater's" website.  

On the other hand, nobody's seeing it nowdays, based on the postings over there.

Hey Term, what time of the day did you take those pictures, looks like a hell of a storm.


Take care of the fungi!

5:45 pm!  It looked pretty dicey for awhile.

It's been many a year since I've been in a tornado (30 to be exact).  I'm overdue for another one.

Thanks for the sentiments.  There ain't no fun in fungus.

Term, I'm thinkin if the fugi are so prolific in your neck of the woods (or even just on your own neck), you might want to think about growing mushrooms. I live near the Mushroom Capital of the world...there's lots of money in mushrooms and I bet if you were clever, you could incorporate a home mushroom farm on the tops of your new spas..The one with the tree gave me that idea. What a sell point...and if you used a good quality mushroom soil (composted manure), it generates it's own heat.

Mushroom Capital of the World
Kennett Square, Pennsylvania
No U.S. state produces more mushrooms than Pennsylvania. So it makes sense that here, in the heart of mushroom country, one would find the Phillips Mushroom Museum. Established in 1972, the museum chronicles three generations of the mushroom-farming Phillips family beginning with Pennsylvania mushroom pioneer William W. Phillips, a man who really knew his shiitake.


I think a good soak in a high concentration of bromine at about 108 degrees might help your ear...the nails will be much tougher to deal with..Do you have a Rotozip?

We usually don't have many mushrooms growing around here except in the riverbottoms, but this unusually wet weather has got them sprouting up like dwarves.
Might not be a bad idea to start cultivating some.  I've got a good stock of spores in my ears and nostrils.

Anyone ever had leprosy?  If so, how do you get rid of it?

I can't go to the doctor because Amy (my underling) is visiting family in Florida, so I'm outta luck until next week.  I just hope it don't get on my giblets.

What's a Rotozip? :-?

Rifampin- No I've never had leprosy or TB.  My daughter has cystic fibrosis, and she's been on every known antibiotic in the universe, including Rifampin and Sporanox.

Sporanox is an antifungal and as such might work on the nasty creeping crud that appears to be turning Term into a large walking mold although I would certainly suggest getting evaluated sooner rather than later as that looks nasty!

Hansen's Disease (leprosy is so last century...) is typically treated with a cocktail of rifampin (an antibiotic also often used in the related disease TB), dapsone (another antibiotic that works similar to the old sulfa antibiotic drugs) and usually clofazimine, another antibiotic that by itself has a weak affect on Mycobacterium leprae but is greatly magnified when used in combination.

Thalidomide (yes, THAT thalidomide) is also commonly used for Hansen's Disease to treat specific forms of the disease.

Typically treatment with the multi drug therapy can take anywhere from 6 months to as much as 2 years and even then the disease has been known to reoccur.

Like many disease's the transmission is not known definitively although it seems that direct contact is the most likely means of transmission.

So perhaps frivolity in hot tubs with women of unknown or at best dubious moral character at events that go by somewhat suspicious names like Alley Fest could be a source.  I notice the creeping crud didn't appear until afterwards... :-?



Hmm, seems worth the risk!  :D

Dude, screw waiting til next week...dont you have any 24 hour doctors down there like Urgent Care...that stuff looks serious. I put off going to the doc too (like most men) but I wouldnt mess with that...it reminds me of "The Fly" movie when the dude starts to transform.

No doubt, I'd have been at the doctors a few days ago and I typically go into my doctor about once every 5 yrs.

Ouch, Chris, are those real photos? I hope everything clears up for you. Let us know how it goes with the doctor.

On a side note, I was very excited beacuse my HS aux panel died the other night. None of the buttons functioned--the aux panel was dead. It started working again last night for some reason. I hope it goes out on the fritz for good real soon.

I want to get in the spa business so I can surf the internet and use Photoshop all day long.

What Jim replied to Term in the Dead Horse Thread back in May, may be coming true.

[glow]Terminator, you are aware of the netgative Karma that you get from maligning the dead.
 
You can read about it in the Bible, Gita, and in many of the scriptures from God.
When I read it, it said "sickness" "plagues" "mold" "fungus" and other things are coming your way.
I am not kidding. Read the Bible. [/glow]
