My girlfriend at the time called an Ambulance and I was taken to hospital. They diagnosed Red Back spider bite and gave me anti venom but by then it was too late so I spent the next few days in hospital recovering.
I never want to have that happen again.

I got bit by a little whatever just last week and still have the wound healing. The itching around it was unbelievable. Some of the most intense itching I can recall, I can only imagine what that's like all over holy shit! Plus prolly wondering all the while if your e gonna die.
