jumper03 0 #1 September 5, 2006 In helping to locate a cut away bag lock in the woods yesterday I found a not so friendly hornets nest. The little fuckers waited until they were all on me before the first one stung... this hurts... Scars remind us that the past is real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LisaM 0 #3 September 5, 2006 I feel your pain in other ways. I was practicing football with my son yesterday and while I grabbed the football on the ground first, it was a mere second later his helmet came crashing into my arm. Right on the side of the elbow. It was one of those painful sleeping nights. Ooft! ~ Lisa ~ Do you Rigminder? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah Steve, those silver-dollar sized welts didn't look too pretty. They've grown..... Strangely enough, I am usually allergic to stings. But I think I have my girlfriends cats to thank. I take an antihistamine tablet every day. I think having that in my system kept this from being much worse.Scars remind us that the past is real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWFlyer 2 #10 September 5, 2006 Aw, and here I was planning to come in here and say "it's your own damn fault for drinking so much, ya dumbass." But then I realized there were no drunken posts from you last night, so this must be legit. Hope it heals up soon.

As for sting count - I'm lucky - only 7 I think. A couple were so close they've swollen together so it's just one big lump - I look like I have popeye fore arms now Scars remind us that the past is real Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AggieDave 6 #23 September 5, 2006 PAIN In my feet PAIN In my legs PAIN In my back Thats ok, I like it there... My medical advice is to drink that case of beer the jumper gave you for finding his canopy. If there was no beer given, then a phone call to the jumper explaining the extent of your injuries to the jumper and how good some cold beer would be right now is in order.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

swedishcelt 0 #25 September 5, 2006 My mom used to get a leafy thingy from the backyard called planta? She used to wet it and put the leaves right on the stings. It really helped them. It helps poison ivy too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
