OT: ANOTHER SPIDER BITE FOR ME

August 14, 2008

Oh you long time members know that some years ago I was bitten in the neck

by a desert recluse and had such a long time of illness from it but was

extremely lucky and just have a nice scar from my experience. Well, this

morning I was bitten on my back by something again. It hurt and itched so

bad. I felt it bite me when I got out of bed but too late and don't know

exactly what it was. I guess I will have to wait. The last time it took

three or four days for the skin to die and the necrosis to set in. I just

pray it wasn't a spider as bad as the recluse. And yes, Marty there are

desert recluse in CA and we live just above Palm Springs in the mountains.

We found the spider the last time and the doctor confirmed it was a recluse

bit, but when it isn't in the fatty area of the body it isn't as bad as most

bites with the necrosis but oh I was so sick and in pain for about two

months.

Well the itching has stopped now about 3 hours later so that is good. Anyone

know if a Wolf spider is toxic? found one of those on the floor. It's

time to bomb again. We live in the forest here so it has to be a frequent

occurrence.

Thanks for reading.
