SD, So sorry to hear you've slipped back a bit. What you need is a quick diagnosis and treatment.

Better do what the little old lady at the top of the page says. She's a terror when she's crossed (and learning karate! At her age. I ask you..........!). :)

Good luck.

Carpe Diem

Bathing is dangerous! Showering too. I got hurt in the shower too (damn ninjas!) But I'll get my vengence, one of these days. In the meantime, you see a doctor quick and take care of yourself. I learned the ahrd way not to wait in situations like this. Good luck, hope everything works out
