hey all, i realize i havnt posted in some time... but there has been a problem.. I have sufferd 2nd/3rd degree burns all over my arms, back, chest etc... i have been in the hospital for 5 days with heat stroke, and some skin rehabiliating things, you dont realize how painfull it is right noe for me to type, but i wanted to get thi message across ASAP, I will not be able to paintball for the rest of the season... I will not be fully recoverd for 2-3 months, and there will suggnificent scaring and etc... what happend is that I went to a lake... Bear lake and well I had to much fun and didn't realize my sun block washed off into the water and I got fryed... the night I came home I knew I was burnt... but nothing like I thought... I began puking Everything I had, shivering, and I went into a small coma for 2 days. when I woke up I was in the hospital with my dad sleeping in the chair next to me I woke up screaming from the pain I was in, well the good news is, that I had an unlimited ammount of morphing  . Well anyways, now I have to go threw a crapp load of physical therepy, and I may need some plastic surgery around my arms. let this be a leason... when you hop in a lake... make sure your sun screen is water proof 33.... i hate this labtop, freakin thing is slow. -------------

no offense, but i call shenanigans on 3rd degree burns... what you
described were severe 2nd degree burns. 3rd degree = blackened
charred skin past all layers of skin and actually burn the fat beneath
your skin. still... sucks to hear that... hope you recover soon |

I had 2nd-degree sunburn once. If you really have 3rd-degree.. Oh man. That sucks. Here's a moronic wish hoping that you'll get better soon despite your statement that it will be several months. ------------- Is God real? You'll find out when you die.

Ouch man. Hope you get better. But I know where your coming from, I had second degree burns on my legs from sun poisioning one time. Had to go to the hospital and everything. My legs were black and blue for about 3 months afterwords. I got some good painkillers for it though, not morphine, but still good. |

What hurts is the rebuilding of the nerves, i assume then. Seriously, how long were you out, and what were you doing? I have spet nearly all day in the sun with no protection and all that came from that was a somewhat severe sunburn. Were you dehydrated? -------------

i dont know you, but sympathy, anyways, dont use morphine, too much will make you nausous! instead, ask your doctor if he can prescribe you Percaset! Works WaAaAyY BetTeR!! dunno if thats the correct spelling, but its pronouced PER-KA-SET. |

I think the water amplifies the sunburn factor, but I had a friend that went to the pool and stayed for 12 HOURS and he got fried, he came to homeroom with bubbles of puss about the size of golf balls and they would get bigger and then shoot puss out. He didnt come to school again for 3 weeks he was in the hospital. It was bad. Well I hope you get better. (do you have any cool puss bubbles?) He got Vicodene (sp?)------------- Long Live The Confederacy I am an AMERICAN AND IM PROUD OF IT! |

Am i the only one who thinks this is funny? Haha, dude, how do you not realize youve been getting burned to the point that boils are forming? And in water i thought it was nearly impossible to get a sunburn, maybe i was wrong...
Ive never gotten burned though. I have good skin so i just get a super nice tan. ------------- ///AMG What? |

Sorry, I had to:

I've had something like that, but luckily it was only on my shoulders. Being Irish like me means never going outside for long this time of the year without sunscreen. I know how painful that crap is, where you can't even move your arms or have anything even lightly touch it. This lasted for almost a week. I didn't get sick or anything, but it was excruciatingly painful. I was out for about 3 hours with no sunscreen. Very stupid on my part. I'm probably guaranteed to get skin cancer now, especially since my dad's had it before. Trust me, I've been pwned hardkore by the sun plenty of times. Now I don't have to worry as much because I've become one of those basement-dwelling creatures. |

I think its that a 1st 2nd and 3rd degree burn from the sun is different from burns you would get if you say, poured water on a grease fire. I did that at a fire station open house. It scared me so much i fell on my butt. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/DBibeau855/?chartstyle=myspacecolors">

Well you arent supposed to pour water on a greese fire, the water is coulder than the burning greese, it sizzles and sprays flaming grease everwhere, you get a fireball 10 meters all around depending on how much water you put on, i just threw a cup on it. I had a full fire suit on and a poll with a little cup duct taped on the end. They told me it would get hot breifly but not to worry. They didnt warn me i was gonna be engulfed.. It startled me so much i tripped backwards. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/DBibeau855/?chartstyle=myspacecolors">

No, a grease fire, its just a pan with some flames, i walked up all in fire gear, and im like i cant believe they think im gonna get hurt from this. This is easy. Flames, all in the pan maybe 2-3 inches tall. I poured the water and as soon as it hits, it flares up everywhere, if you pour water on your grease fire at home, your entire kitchen will be tourched. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/DBibeau855/?chartstyle=myspacecolors">

If you take if off the stove it will probly go out. To kill a grease fire you can either turn off the stove, cover the skillet if it has a lid and use baking soda anything to smother it. ------------- http://www.last.fm/user/DBibeau855/?chartstyle=myspacecolors">
