i got bitten too..... I'm SERIOUS (it totally and royally sucks)

and now i don't even need a fishing rod or reel or line or a hook

i just point my finger at a rising bass and capture him in a spidey web and yank him to shore.

sorta took all the fun out of fishing.... though.

No really, in ALL SERIOUSNESS !!!

i know it sounds funny -> but SPIDER Bites are some
serious SH1T and then some.
it makes wasp stings seem like child's play in comparison. Ticks.... don't tickle me....

first the bite area ...........
-it was the size of a quarter, all red and achy as hell !!

i woke up the next day with a serious case of sciatica
which is where you sciatic nerve hurts like a bastage
from your hip down to your ankle.... all numb and tingling

then it kept on expanding until it was the size of a tennis ball
seemingly doubling in size ... every other friggan day... :yikes:

it's been two weeks and "finally the tide has turned" (thank god)

i've been taking 2000 milligrams of vitamin C twice
a day....because my Doctor won't prescribe antibiotics
anymore......... unless your about to friggan DIE....

AND any i had on hand......... were all destroyed
in the house fire.... son of a BEOTCH

Today, i just plugged in a flowtron device
that repels all insects and rodents too

made in the USA in Malden Mass.

New York and Connecticut residents will have to have a Rhody
or Mass buddy order them one because of their dumb laws!

i'm taking the fight to them... because
it's a VERY nasty experience !!

Did you see the spider? Hopefully it wasn't a recluse. Their bite can cause a nasty condition (necrosis). Antibiotics are the way to go. Keep an eye on the bite area. If it starts growing use a pen and mark the outline. If it gets worse go back to the doc pronto.

My spider was a whimp, it was the infection that got me...but the anti-biotics have all but wiped it out...thank goodness.

========================================

the area is showing signs of Rapid healing
(Spence's warning made me have it checked anyway)
just to be on the safe side...

the doctor is correct in not prescribing antibiotics

the theory there is to not allow BUGS to form an immunity to them!

unless there is an infection that requires them~ which there is not...

i am in control of my immune system like an off world scientist

and I study how to boost my immune system every single day

[spence]

I'm in the camp that you should use anti-biotics only when necessary...the super bugs are just waiting to know your weakness.

In my case it was an easy decision, soon the infection would have spread to my muscle and blood where I would have been seriously f'ed up.

You must have been bit by a more serious spider, but lacked the infection...
