[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 807212, member: 50197"] If it was a snake, and neither I or the doctor had any other reasonable explanation, I believe it would have to be a very small one. I'm pretty sure if it had been an adult, I would have seen and felt it, and there would have been obvious fang marks. I have read that the small ones can be more dangerous because they cannot control their venom delivery and will inject everything they have. An adult will adjust the amount depending on their perception of the situation. Of course there are other factors that can limit the amount of venom injected. FYI hand is better today, less swollen and feels better overall. I just wish I knew for sure if it was a snake, or something else. "I may have been bitten by a snake." just isn't as cool a story as "I was bitten by a snake.". ;) [/QUOTE]
