Ringworm

My wifes new cat has ringworm and now me and my wife have been infected. I'am really worried that one of us has been infected on our scalp, which causes hair to fall out. My hair is just past my nose in the front and a little bit longer in the back, but my wifes hair is all the way down to her butt. Has anyone had experince with this?

Are u sure what u and your wife has is ringworm? I don't think it's from your cat if it is-cat ailments are usuallys species specific.

Ringworm is not a worm, but a fungus. It is fairly easy to treat, and easier the sooner you catch it. Get thee to a doctor and have him/her check through your scalp. How do you know you have it? If it is on the skin, then the ring like markings are fairly obvious. I think nowadays it is treatable with over the counter meds, but go find out. Waiting only gives it time to spread. And you can catch it from animals, as it is a fungus spread by contact.

Robert and Jake posted at exactly the same time. Look at the main page! The system got confused, and spawned two messages with the same file name. Now if we reply to either one, our reply will show up on both. Also, if Victor tries to remove either, both will vanish. I help run a board with this same software that is much busier than this one, and I've seen it happen twice there after many thousands of messages. Rare, but it happens.

Do you think that we should try to do it again? That would be even cooler.
