It's not easy being blue. Pretty unique though.

I feel bad for him, but the dude is still taking the potion that's been linked to that condition.

Back in 1999, Stan Jones who was a Libertarian candidate for the Senate in Montana began drinking colloidal silver because he was convinced that there would be an antibiotic shortage due to Y2K hysteria. He turned blue, it is permanent, though not dangerous (stupid and expensive maybe).

Weirdest part is where it mentions his girlfriend.

That story is from my neck of the woods (At least in DMA terms).
So if this Argyria was caused by rubbing the Colodial Silver on the face, then how did it spread?
I see this condition has been recognized for a long time now. I wonder if the folks who came up with this stuff a long time ago might be laughing out loud in their graves.

Lets see... he drinks some silver **** several times a day that is known to cause this condition but still doesn't believe it is the cause and has never seen a doctor about it. Smart smart man.

My Mom used to drink colloidal silver. She may still, I forwarded the link onto her.
About every 6 months, she finds a new alternative medicine cause to hand to the family.
And if anyone is curious, Colloidal silver tastes really really gross.

The loss of hair, development of black boils, and skin turning odd shades of color means it's working!
