I got bitten by a false black widow on Friday.. I have been stung by wasps and by bees many times before (+ by other flying and crawling insects) but this time the reaction was quite different + the pain itself was stronger + it lasted much longer and that why I decided to look on the internet what it could be.
My arm is 10 times better now compared to but still it is not really well. I read that some people get some serious problems that develop even a week later (up to an amputation) after those bites. Is that true?
Anyone?

I’d do an Aron Ralston on it just to be safe.
Your doctor might be in a better position to give advice than the BS crew.
No offence to any BS heads!
Oooh nasty…
And what Zeligs said ! Don’t do what Hoop suggests :)
Spoil sport.

I’m no Dr James Atherton (http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0014345/) but are you sure that’s a False Widow or is it file footage of another deceased arachnid?
How did it happen, did you brush off it or whatever?
You need to tell me it didn’t purposefully attack you so I can sleep at night.
This happened to someone who was bitten in my local cinema – warning contains some graphic images
