Capp - Just wanted to say that thanks and no I didn't read your posts as too harsh. Your honest, I appreciate that and your being willing to share.

And Notz, I really appreciate your support.

Thought I could share something at least semi amusing out of the situation. I had yesterday off (booked weeks ago and my boss let me still take it.) to go to a spa for the day. After the last couple of weeks I really needed it. But the lady who was doing my facial looked at me and said "Boy your skin is really dry - I don't think I've ever seen skin this dry before, I'm going to give you our most hydrating masque." I'll I could think of (not that I said it) was "well yes - drinking for 6 days straight does tend to dry out one's skin. At least my sense of humour is comming back.
