when my sister Kim first called me about this I did not believe it. Or rather thought it was a hoax of some poor soul needing much attention. Then I googled it.....
Wow this poor guy was trying to treat himself but once again we need to take prescriptions as perscribed people!!! This is the article I found.
An American man's attempts to cure an irritating skin condition backfired when his face turned blue.
Fair-skinned Paul Karason developed dermatitis as a result of stress 14 years ago and decided to treat it using silver extract
Paul Karason's says he has moved states and avoids public places
The substance is usually consumed orally but Mr Karason also decided to rub it into his peeling skin to accelerate the effects.
According to the 57-year-old, the effect began so gradually that neither he nor he friends noticed the change at first.
He told US television that he is now so embarrassed about his condition that he has moved states and seeks to avoid public places.
Proponents say that colloidal silver, the substance Mr Karason says is responsible for his changing hue, can help boost the immune system and help prevent diseases. It has even been touted as a treatment for AIDS and cancer.
However, the US Food and Drug Administration has rejected most of these claims.
The FDA notes that use of colloidial silver can cause a condition known as argyria, an irreversible discolouration of the skin.

It doesn't seem to bother him to much.
he rubbed it on his skin instead of taking orally.
