How's that skin treatment going Frankie?? All recovered?

Actually, all the scabs have fallen off, leaving me with bright, clear
skin. I still have to go back in a month and a half for a follow up.
I have to admit, it was the most uncomfortable medical treatment I've
ever had. Other things, like a steroid shot into the shoulder hurt
like hell for a bit. This was 3 weeks of misery. Looked pretty scary
too.
I only had to have it on for 10 days, as the doc assessed the treatment
as fully effacacious at that point. Some folks need 5 weeks of the
stuff. I couldn't imagine that without putting me in a coma for the
duration.
Short story is: wear sunscreen and broad-brimmed hats.

WTF?

Scab_s_ falling off? "It" only on for 10 days? What in the name of
Jehovah's Witless did you do to yerself now?

TC,

....IAC, I think I've found a major source of potential budget
problems...Frank's VA coverage...wouldn't it just be cheaper and easier
on all to simply replace WRAMC with FRAMC, (hey, two letters - it'll be
a cheap changeover) and in their spare time, they could like, you know,
treat the entire corp of RA or something...

Had a bit of a problem with skin cancer so was on some chemotherapy
cream that was essentially like rubbing my face with acid and sand.
From my cheekbones up, I was about 80 percent scab.

Not using my VA. Got a good PPO through my company. I'll hit them up
in a few years. Don't want to shock them too quickly.

Ah, OK...glad to hear that all is well...at least until you recover
enough to revert to SNAFU...G

Understood...it's a lot like a set of jumper cables - if you really MUST
use it, you must, but...

Could you inform those of us who care which company provides it? I, for
one, would like to make sure I've none in my portfolio...G

Hmm, now that you mention it, I've always wondered why I've only had
two jobs since the Air Force but five insurance companies. Every year,
the one I was with has pulled itself out of the offerings for my
company.
Doesn't matter, I can always find an insurance company here in Omaha.
