This isn't my account-it's my sister's. But I'm a changeling, and my glamour is failing.
I burned myself with iron on the hand and thigh to the point that it blistered, but now the areas around are green and spreading. Yesterday, I puked everywhere because of the iron in the car. Repeatedly.
I need to know how to fix this. Anyway. Because it's fading so fast. It's going beyond the burns and to my face. Half my face is fucking green.
Help me? Please. I'm so tired because of all the iron in the city. I'm sick and dizzy and need help.
Okay, this is Halee. I'm the original poster.
No, it wasn't an infection. I had no open wounds, or other means to get an infection.
What happened was I was with my sister, and I took a piece of COLD iron and held it against my hand. It left a blister within three minutes. I did the same on my leg. Within an hour, the skin around the small burns turned green. I know what an infection-y green looks like. This wasn't it. It was a brighter, vibrant green with a slight sheen. When I tried scrubbing the green off, it only spread more.
For the next three days the glamour got worse and worse until half my face was green although there was no burn there. Along with my unburned leg.
Everytime I was in the car, I puked because of all the iron.
My glamour fixed itself with some aid from me. The burns are still there, but the green is not.
I know the signs of infection. I considered that at the beginning of the greenness. I checked my temp, ect. I went to the doctor once the glamour was fixed for the burns to be exaimed, and she said there was no sign of previous or impending infection.
