Twice Bitten! - Blogabond

Back in Bangkok and back to being bitten by mysterious animals that no Thai people seem to know anything about. Except this time its hurting a lot!!!

Previously when in Bangkok i was bitten by animal that leaves a fanged two marks a cm apart or just under. It paralysed my foot until Doctor Daz helped out with some tablets and cream. I didn't see it happen and had no explanation given by anyone at the pharmacy!

Anyway back here a few days and its happened again, except now i have one on each foot and no Daz. I am currently on a diet of pain killers and dermovate cream to remove most of the pain. It hurts a lot and walking is not top of my wish list at the moment either as you can imagine. Takes my mind of the back injury from tubing though i suppose!

Well still nobody knows what the animal is so im asking those reading, any ideas?

I think spider. Remember i have never seen it happen so it must be quick, it has this two fanged mark, leaves immense swelling and pain and didnt kill me last time!

Thoughts?

Hopefully i will make it to Malaysia very soon in one piece. So speak then!

ps. Bangkok doesn't change even with mass rallies!

Hey blogboy,

its the girls you met briefly in an internet cafe in Bangkok. We're heading to Laos tomorrow, just updating our journal and thought we'd see how you are doing. Anyway once read that if you tape/strap raw papaya on an insect bite/wound and leave it for a couple of days it heals it- not sure if it works but good luck!
