I HATE SPIDERS!!!!!!

Jun 18, 2005 12:12

So thursday night when I went to bed I noticed a little bite on my chest. I didn't think a lot about it because it looked like a mesquito bite. Anyway when I woke up yesterday the bite had gotten bigger and a blister was on top of it and around it was a red raised up circle. It wasn't unbearable, it itched a little and was hot and kinda hurt but I still didn't get worried.
Well me and Jacky went to Rough River and I got an application and she paid for the cabin for our Birthday Luau. It really cool to, it's closer to te cabin than the last one we were in and it's right at the end of the road. Anyway then we went to short creek and got ice cream then we went on to Owensboro to look for some Luau party supplies. That turned out to be a good idea cause we racked up on alot of good things and It was less expensive than ordering it from specialty stores. Then we ate at Texas Roadhouse (always a pleasure) and Jacky picked up the bill, cause shes cool like that. So if your reading this, THANKS JACKY! We also checked out the new Wal-Mart on 54, I was let down because the outside looked cool and the inside was nothing new and I just didn't like it. We went on to Beaver Dam to pic up my pictures and I am so upset with the way they all turned out, I'll be so happy when I get a digital camera. Anyway we had a fun day (aside from 20 different types of farm equipment driving 5 miles each down the road. Ha-Ha)
I dropped Jacky off at her house and got home about 9:45. When I went to put on my pajamas I freaked out. The bite was bigger and black with a white ring, then a purple ring, then a blue ring and then a big red raised up ring around the who thing, I couldn't believe how much worse it had gotten without me feeling a thing or messing with it. I call Dad, he was doing something outside like always, so I called nanny, she told me to get my ass to the ER. Well Dad beeped in when I was on the phone with her and he told me to come to his house first (he thinks I make a big deal out of small things, so unless I've lost about 3 pints of blood or my ankle is twisted all the way around, we do't go to the doctor.) So on the way I stopped at Nanny's to show her because shes seen spider bites before. She said it was one and told me to make Dad take me. Well I didn't have to make him because when he saw it he got dressed and we were off to the ER. I was kinda scared on the drive up cause he wouldn't go unless he thought it was serious. Well we got out of there at 11:37. The nurse asked me how I was feeling and I said, "Fine, I just don't know what happened." she asked me if I was hot and I said no. Turns out I had a 101.6 fever and didn't feel a damn thing and my skin was cold. So that was kinda weird. Anyway it was a Brown Recluse spider bite and I have antibiotics that I take 3 a day, I have to go back Monday, or earlier if it gets worse.
It's venom affects your lymph nodes and under my arm they are killing me. If you want to see some pictures that AREN'T of me but look like my bite go to http://www.highway60.com/mark/brs/bite.asp?Msg=1545 the 2nd pic lookes like mine, only mine has white, blue, and a big red circle around the bite. The rest of the pics blow that one show what happens if it gets worse. Enjoy. I'm going back to bed.
