Spider Bite Update - 11/9/2010

This is a picture taken last night, Sunday. It was a little bigger this morning when we got up and cleaned it. The two dots are the bites. The inner dotted circle is where the boundary was on Friday. The outter dashed line is where it had spread from Saturday night to Sunday morning.

Not a very fun thing to wake up and see. I was hoping it would have been a lot smaller.

However, I went to the doctor this morning and he was pleased with the progress of the actual bite marks. He said they were drying up, and the bite marks was the thing he was most worried about. The red part that is spreading is the infection. The doctor gave me new antibiotics, becuase he said the ones I am currently on aren't working on the infection. So I am finishing up the ones I am on and starting these new antibiotics as well.

Wish me luck!
