OUCH...not fun just ignored it for a few days because I am allergic to everything a new Bump or sore is not different when ya trying to get the garden ready and just keeping busy insects are ignored....Not this one...

Been going to the er every few days lots of antibotics and dressings and IVs... this bugger eats your skin and drives your immune system crazy... Sorry I have been such a B*tch Life is heck when ya can not walk or your whole system is messed up with fever leg swelling 4 times bigger than life...pain is almost un heard of and sleep can never come for the discomfort..and everything they do back fires never wait if ya think ya got a spider bite that might be poison eats flesh and races for the bones and bone marrow (opps spelling) can be deadly!!! I apologise the last few weeks is Heck...

thanks..but this was at my home and never was in jail or on a binge or drug thing ....sprained my ankle went to get an ace bandage and ice the bandage was in a room we keep for tools and stuff we do not use often put the ice on, tried to stablise it with the ace bandage a few minutes after it was on my leg felt like it was on fire...took off the bandage and ice and there was a swollen place with a dot in the middle like a target..and then hence a fang left behind in the bite...the storage room is clean just not used much spiders and insects find a home I suspect..
