speedlamper 0 Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 (edited) A man in the US has been left looking and feeling blue after using silver extract to treat a skin condition. Paul Karason was fair skinned and freckled 14 years ago - before he developed a bad case of dermatitis caused by stress. When it got so bad that the skin on his face began to peel and crack he started using a substance called colloidal silver. The product is reportedly made by extracting silver from metal into water with an electrical current and it is then taken as a drink. But the 57-year-old has said drinking the potion did not cause his skin to discolour - the change in hue happened when he rubbed he potion directly onto his face. "The change was so gradual that I didn't perceive it and other people around me likewise," he said. "It wasn't until a friend I hadn't seen in several months came by my parents' place to see me and he asked me 'What did you do?'" His girlfriend, Jackie Northup, added: "The only time now I really think about it or notice it is if we're out in public and people start staring." Describing him as a "very kind man with a big heart" Ms Northup said she hopes people learn to accept the way he looks. Mr Karason has moved from Oregon to California hoping to find acceptance but said: "I do tend to avoid public places as much as I can." But he said he was optimistic about being accepted for who he is. He said: "I think that will happen here. Where I was, I rather doubt it would have but this is a different kind of community."

Ossie 11 Posted April 21, 2008 Report Share Posted April 21, 2008 one day his missus will wake up next to him, dead, and she won't notice! how did no one spot he was turning blue?! feck me, when people start asking you "are you warm enough?" all the time, and offering to turn the heating up, you might start to wonder if something was a bit wrong? shouldn't laugh, but it is a bit funny. i've always found the word "smurf" amusing anyways. little blue skivers...
