Hope you are ok!

Oof. :(

I'm pretty sure he actually got bit by a real black widow spider.

you don't need to go to a doctor, unless you're a very young child/ a geriatric/ or an immuno-compromised person.
Contrary to the Mythical insta-death surrounding black-widow bites... It may be painful, but is far from "deadly".

Unless you're allergic in which case, you'll go into shock and probably die before they can rescue you..
Second case, could be your air way seizes up, and you'd require tracheostomy, WHICH can be performed by a friend with a knife and a hollow tube.

TP4 - I've just always been curious, cause I grew up around a lot of them. Could never use a wheelbarrow or any yard equipment, really, without having to get rid of at least 1 black widow.
Where'd you even get bit, daerid? I bet what ever you were doing, you'll be more cautious next time ;)

Whenever TP posts, I always learn something. Well, most of the time anyways.

This is the little ****er right here.
Yeah I went to the hospital. Didn't know what else to do, and my health insurance covers pretty much everything. Glad I did, too. Morphine really helped things out.

Ouch. I hope you heal up soon, that doesn't sound like much fun.

LOOK AT THIS *******. THIS ******* RIGHT HERE. Screw that guy.
At least insurance covered most of it.

you must burn your house down as payback now.

It's the only way to make sure they are all gone ;)

Actually, it covered all of it.

Personally, I said we should take off and nuke the site from orbit.
It's the only way to be sure.

Yikes! Glad you are ok (and at least able to post).

When I was a kid my cat MC was bitten by a brown recluse. One of the most difficult 48hrs of my life, but in the end he pulled through and lived to the ripe age of 17. He had this big cavern in his chest where the vet pulled out all the dead tissue :(
Glad to hear you're OK now as well.

Go find another black widow, make it bite that one.

Gotta say, I would much rather be bitten by a widow than recluse.

Apparently it runs in my family. Mom was bitten by a Black Widow, Dad by a Brown Recluse (didn't have a necrotic reaction though).
