SO bad. He told her that when she described it to his nurse when calling for an appointment, he doubted her. Until he saw it. Every square inch of her torso was inflamed and covered in sores and scabs. She wound up in hospital for over a week!

If not for knowing that, I might have skipped it for several more years but no way was I gonna risk that!
