Barbara,

There are four methods generally that are being talked about here.
Each takes a different approach to treat the bite.

1.  Kill any bacteria etc that are injected by the spider.
   - Use colloidal silver or antibiotics.

2.  Draw out any poison from the bite area.
   - Use charcoal pack, clay pack, or something similar.

3.  Counteract the action of the poison.
   - Use nicotine patch.

4.  Neutralize the poison.
   - Use heat, or high voltage (low current) shock like
     a stun gun or a spark from a car or lawnmower.

Hope this makes things clearer.

Dan

What I meant Mike is that one person says put some ice on the bite and the next person recommends heat. When you don't know what is right, it is next to impossible to make a right decision. More like Russian roulette. I sure will let you all know how this all ended. And I wanted to thank you for your generous help :) Barbara

    That's what taking personal responsibility for your health-care
    decisions means. *You* are the only one who can decide what's best
    to try from among the options you are aware of.

    At least now she knows there are other options.

    Thanks for your caring Barbara. Please let us know how it turns out,
    whatever she decides to do.

    Be well,

    Mike D.
