'I woke up to my mum screaming and pointing at a half-squashed spider the size of a dinner plate.'
"A redback — and not much really. My finger hurt and got swollen.""I Googled it. I was camping and my kids were asleep, so I figured I would seek medical help if I got nauseous or had more symptoms that weren’t localised to the bite site, but I was fine. By the next day, it was a mix of sore and itchy. The day after that, it was just itchy. Sprayed the absolute fucking shit out of our camper trailer though because I have small children.
Half an hour later, the ambulance had me at the hospital. My hand was throbbing, and I felt like an idiot, but otherwise I was fine. They kept me under observation for about six hours to monitor my condition. My hand was swollen, and I couldn't flex it properly. The pain was tight and dull, probably about a 5 out of 10 on the pain scale. Eventually, the symptoms receded, and they sent me home. I slept a little uncomfortably that night, but woke up the next day good as new.
