    And I an not squinting- I got that swollen that fast.

    It took almost a week before I showed no signs of swelling.

    I knew I could count on you guys for compassion and understanding!

    And just an FYI- I am not usually a tie dye shirt guy, but wifey, grandsons, and I made matching shirts to wear, and the boys wanted to show them off that day.

    OUCH! Ice packs, benedryl, Zantac. It really helps with the swelling.

    Damp tobacco applied to bite helps draw out poison and eases pain.
