When I posted this original comment I was at my wits end, I had so many unusual things happen during my treatment that I thought if I posted here I would at least get some real people who had gone through what I was going through and by that I would get some good help on what to do.
I was not admitted to hospital, although my husband kept saying to the nurses that if he got burnt like this at work he would be in hospital. They just said this is a different burn and “we have done this to her” it was surreal the way it all went.
i was even told not to go to my GP because they won’t know how to deal with this type of burn. 😱
Finally we had to leave and head to Brisbane so With the help of hubby we made it through.
i am actually olive skinned and the other thing the doctor asked was if I was aboriginal, I told her I was a kiwi, then she asked if I was Maori and she went in to say that a recent study on American Indians and various indigenous peoples with olive skins showed that they were more likely to suffer like I did, and not the the really fair skinned people like Swedish and Norwegian.
Thanks for your kind words and compliments 😘
