Re: We sure as hell missed you
 

uh rev what are trying to say, that im on my 50th hs reunion, lol, btw add vp to your sig , woop's this year would be my 26th year hs reunion. - day-um, i guess that makes you the prez lol. ---- tnt please go get that looked at, like i said before my dad got bit by a brown recluse & they had to cut a hunk out of his hand the next day- the size of a quarter.:eek:

I would truly consider seeing a doctor on that one. Not being able to see it firsthand is like driving from the trunk. If it is starting to ulcerate and I'm not saying it is, can't tell from here but Crazy Horse is right. I've seen hunks the size of apples taken out to stop the spread if it goes too long and indeed it IS a brown recluse.
On the neural thing, . . .headaches, and stuff like that can last a while. From what I know about the brown recluse it's "venom" is more like a digestive enzyme than a toxin. Makes you easier to swallow that way.

That sounded like I was confirming it was indeed a brown recluse. .. I meant that IF it is one, anyway, please consider some definitive care.

THANKS!
 

THANKS MEDIC...
I really appreciate your input...Ive been putting some peroxide on it...dont know if thats any good to do, but been doing it anyways...Gonna see how things go tomorrow....
IF It continues to keep bothering me, I'll TRY to take some time off of work on Thursday and go to my Doc. If i cant then, I"ll go Friday.
What do you make of the swelling? What causes that? of corse, I stand on my feet from 10 to 12 hours a day, that prolly does not help!
I was about to go to bed, saw you online and thought i'd wait up to see what you said...thanks again!
Christine TNT :)

Re: THANKS FOR THE INPUT...
 

That reminds me, how is your ankle? What did you end up doing about it? I've been curious to know if it's still giving you trouble (hope not!).

Take care,
ÅChris

HEY EVERYONE, I'm still alive! :)
 

well....Im still kickin..and no limbs have fell off...:)
The swelling of my leg went down, although the bite is still REALLY red around it and swollen...I think its def. infected. Looks like there some little 'core' thingy in the middle I'm tempted to dig out, but I think I'm gonna pass on that one! I can still feel a bigger "LUMP" under the skin as well...dont know what that is... I'm gonna let it go for now...and just keep my eye on it. Iknow this has been kind of a disgusting thread to read..funny, since this happened, I"ve seen a couple of "little" spiders here and there. I think its time to call Johnsons Pest Control....when I was driving today, I had a little spider jump ON MY LEG! (in my car!) :eek: dont know where the hell he came from...i had on jeans thou! (It finally cooled down here and quit raining...its 58* now! :D )
I was on ebay till 4:30 this morning! and yes, it was actually over $500! BUT...I found some COOOOOOOOOL sh*t for Xmas for my runnin' buddies and bday gifts. :) (and of corse a couple of things that I just HAD to have!) :p /mustang related, of corse!/
Doing a last minute garage sale in the morning...I gotta get rid of the CRAP accumulating in my house that I dont need any more! I usually like about a week to prepare, but I just started tonight...:rolleyes: gotta be at WhiteSnakes at 6:30 a.m. :eek: I'm HOPING that it will not keep me up all night, but i need to make some room in this house...sick of looking at Clutter!
My ankle still bothers me at times. Never did go get the $120 brace the doctor told me to get. But, it is better. It stays swollen though. The X-rays said I had some Ligament damage. I twisted the SAME ankle AGAIN at FFW/Ennis carrying the cooler down to the car! Thats also the same leg that got bit....that legs been thru hell and back! hahhahahaha
So, anyways.......... i gotta get busy...I got alot to do tonight...I'll catch up to ya'll sometime later this weekend and post some more...theres some threads I wanna post on, but if I get to doing it now, i'll never leave my desk, and I wont get this **** done!
Anyway! Thanks ya'll for your concern and for your input! I really appreciate it! When I'm freaked out about something, ya'll always make me feel better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
BTW: TEXANS noon tomorrow!!!!!!!! They are playing Cincinatti, I believe...if they lose this one i'll be pissed! I MISSED LAST SUNDAYS GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WAS SOOOOOO UPSET. SO was Caitlin...I'm turning her into a football junkie! LOL!
have a good night! TNT

How is the bite?
Caymon

HEY YA'LL.......
 

HEY! Well, my leg looks better. The bite is still there, still a little hole with something in the middle that I do not feel like digging out, but did not get bigger and most of the redness went away...
Its still sore, but I think eventually it will heal? so....anyways.....
Got to reading this thread again tonight, and after reading it, I had to laugh....did not realize how many visitors of the 'animal' species i've had ever since I moved in here! Between the 'Critter in the Chimney' the Snake, the mouse I could start my own Zoo....(BUT NO ROACHES SRV! ) ;)
Been fighting w/ my computer all week, and preoccupied w/ some other things....Missed ya'll...tomorrow is MY Friday...THANK GOD! and how BOUT THEM TEXANS SUNDAY????? That SUCKED!
CANNOT believe Cincinatti beat them!!!!!!!! :mad: :rolleyes:

TNT

Hey, I was wondering how you was doing with the bite and all. Glad to hear it seems to be getting better.

*gross thread, though*
