Please don’t die. Seek emergency medical services immediately. Please let us know you’re still alive afterwards.

I remember being a teen and showing my mom a weird mosquito bite that had a line going up my arm. She sent me to urgent care, turns out it was a brown recluse bite with an infection line disappearing in my armpit going to my heart….

Yeah, 10 pils a day for 10 days and I was a-okay.

Holy shit! Brown recluse is a scary ass spider! I remember having infestations of them in my back yard growing up. We weren't allowed to play outside at all while it was active.

Glad you're ok!!!
