I've read about using electrical shock to detoxify poison. Apparently  
the electricity changes the molecular structure of the protein that  
is the poison. As I recall, one places electrodes on each side of the  
poison injection site and zaps it with the electricity. I haven't  
tried it.

Thank you. I usually do. The side of the finger opposite the sting  
site seems to be regaining nerve sensitivity.

I know that pride goeth before the fall and all that, but I really do  
heal well. I know this because that's what the doc said upon cutting  
off the necrotic tissue a couple or three months after the snake  
bite. Pretty pink new tissue underneath.

This superior healing condition is the result of eating and drinking  
only the finest.

No beer before its time.

IT'S TIME!
