I went through the quest line Meridia has you go through and at first there was just some god awful glow following me everywhere. Upon restarting the game I got it to go away but now for the past...30 or 40 minutes there has been an Ice Crystal protruding from my body that wont go away....now aside from the why don't I go stand in fire comments any one have any thoughts?

Had the same problem. Get shot with an arrow or with another ice spear, and it should go away.

Either quit to desktop and start up the game again and check if it's gone.

Or simply type in "sixchange" in console- You will be turned into a woman/man, depending on what gender you are to start with (ONLY THE BODY WILL CHANGE, AND YOU WILL KEEP ALL YOUR FEATURES, NO WORRIES). What ever was stuck to your body should be gone now, then you simply retype "sixchange" into the console to turn back to your original gender.

Edit: For the novice: "?" (aka Tilde) is the button to open the console.

I always called the grave key but I figured out what ya meant.

Also it worked and was hella quicker then looking for a person with arrows or spells. I thank you.

This one is pretty common. Be glad it wasn't http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1259386-so-my-friend-has-animals-popping-out-of-her/.
