Steve -

I hope others post comments here about Burrow's solution. I have no experience but do have references that may help you. You can make a modified Burrow's solution using Domeboro tablets. The strengths on this according to the instructions can be 1:40, 1:20, 1:10 dilution Domeboro to water. I'll include links at the bottom of this post if that helps. All of the instructions I've read say use for no more than 7 days but since you've seen the dermatologist, this should be ok? Get that list of questions ready for the doc.

I feel so badly for you. Five weeks of rash would be enough to drive anyone crazy - I hope the rash clears up for you soon. I hope this doesn't sound too crass but I thought I'd leave you with some links to humor. (No politics or religion, I promise :-)).

First, for the Burrow's Solution and Domeboro links:

Now for the bits of humor:
  • The Darwin Awards - the site which honors those dedicated to improving the gene pool.
  • Urban legends and folklore - ok just chuckle worthy
  • TechTales: Tech Room humorous tech stories (annoying ad banners though)
