Brown Recluse Bite on
the Finger |
This story is from a poor
woman who had her finger amputated as a result
of a brown recluse spider bite. This is a picture of a RELAPSE
of infection. This is what happens when the venom is not eradicated
at initial injury. |

My name is LeeAnn Parkes. I am writing concerning your research
with brown recluse spider bites, and the necrosis associated
with these bites.
About 10 years ago I was bitten on the distal end of the
ring finger of my right hand by a brown recluse. I am certain
that this was a brown recluse. I saw the spider and felt it
when it bit me. I remember feeling mild pain and a burning
sensation. I immediately sought medical treatment, but the
physician was not familiar with these spiders, and sent me
home with no antibiotics at all. Around 36 to 48 hours later,
blistering and extreme swelling had started. I again sought
medical treatment with a different physician. By this time,
red streaking had started up my arm my finger was so swollen
that the tissue had started to split open and necrosis had
started in the area of the bite. My entire finger was involved,
with blistering and pus formation extending the length of
the finger. I spent several days in the hospital with IV antibiotics.
The necrosis subsided, tissue was lost and I seemed to get
better.
Over the next two years, this would
happen again. The only warning that I have is the appearance
of a dark bluish/purple node, about the size of a pin dot.
This always comes up on the same side of my finger as the
bite. Blistering, necrosis, tissue loss would all follow in
pretty much the same pattern. I saw different physicians,
each sending me to another for different tests. I have had
every imaginable lab test run (all with negative results),
and have been given so many different diagnosis that I can't
remember them all. Fluid, tissue and blood tests failed to
result in any definite diagnosis. I would tell each physician
that this all started with the bite of the brown recluse,
yet I was told that there was no way this necrotic state could
be a result of the bite. Finally, gangrene developed in this
finger, and the distal and (from the middle joint) was amputated.
After the amputation, the same thing started again, on the
stump Again, on the same side as the bite. About a year after
the amputation, I was sent to a surgeon for a brachial sympathectomy,
with the diagnosis of RSD. After this surgery, for about 6
years, I had no recurrence of the blistering on my finger.
Around two years ago, it started again. Each time is now progressively
worse, and it gets physically harder on me. Nausea and vomiting
are common during this time. Also, I can associate what seems
to be a bladder or kidney infection with these episodes, with
back pain and dark urine. This lasts for one to two weeks
after the finger heals. It seems to start again a few days
before it flares up again. There are no words to adequately
describe the pain.

| About two weeks ago, this same thing
started again. I am to go to a plastic surgeon on Monday, 060500
to discuss the possibility of a skin graft. The wound covers
approx. ? of the stump. The blistering and necrosis is quite
extensive. Each time this starts, it is as if the spider is
continuing to bite me - over and over again. The last surgeon
that I saw is considering amputation. I am honestly afraid that
I will lose my right hand if this continues as is. Dr. Abrams,
I am a registered nurse. This has already cost me so much -
I have seen over 20 different physicians over the last 10 years,
and my medical bills are in excess of a quarter of a million
dollars and continue to rise. I have now suffered another loss,
my bedside practice. I was an ICU nurse. Since I can't seem
to get better, and have no warning of when this will happen,
it was finally impossible for me to continue. I can't financially
afford to take off work for three weeks to a month while my
finger is necrotic. When this last happened (November of last
year) the physician was convinced that I have herpetic whitlow
- even though ALL lab tests were normal and the blistering looks
nothing like whitlow. Over the years, there have been at least
18 to 20 tests run for herpes virus, each with negative results.
I had to fight the entire ortho department of the hospital that
I worked in to go back to work. (see photo) If after reading
this, you feel as though I might benefit from your research
- please contact me. I am willing to do anything at this point.
Not only do I want this episode over with, I want to know
what is wrong with me and how to stop it. Until I heard of
you and your research, I had begun to believe that I had lost
my mind. If I can't get the physician I am currently working
with to contact you, I am willing to come to wherever you
are for help.
I appreciate your time and look forward to hearing from you
soon. I would like to take any info you can share to my appointment
on Monday.
If you can, please help me.
Thank you,
LeeAnn Parkes

AFTER TREATMENT
This woman was successfully treated with Stun Gun under
a physician's supervision. Note that this is very painful
and dangerous. We do not recommend you do this without the
proper experienced practitioner:

For
a limited time, we will include a free
5 ml bottle of pure healing oil with your first
order. We feel it is quite effective. Just send us a note
with your order.

Brown Recluse Bite on the Hand
|
Day 3
The next sequence of pictures follow a victim that is bit
on his thumb. Though not too bad looking after 3 days, this
bite is far from fully developed. |
|
Day 4
Notice the finger is still swelling as the bite become more
and more infected. Though antibiotics will subdue the infection,
most bite victims will still experience a lot of pain and
suffering from the wound that develops. |
|
Day 5
"The thumb which was bit is still swelling and getting
more red. It is clear that this bite is infected and the general
state of the soft tissue around the penetration point is degenerating." |
|
Day 6
"At this point, the infection has progressed enough
to warrant some invasive treatments and procedures. This will
involve making cuts and draining the wound." |
|
Day 9
"The wound has now been lanced and drained. Two days
have gone by since the last photo. At this point it is hoped
the infection won't get any worse. " |
|
Day 10
"At this point the wound looks as bad as it will look.
The infection has slowed and though this will take months
to heal, the real threat has passed. Now only time will tell
how well the injury heals and if there is any permanent damage
to the skin, muscles, nerves and other surrounding soft tissue.

Brown Recluse Bite on the leg
"The bite happened when asleep and wasnt
noticed for several days.
I took my son to a clinic in my town because he was visiting me.
The Dr. was not very helpful,he didnt know what the wound was and
couldn't confirm it was a Brown recluse bite. He prescribed antibiotics
and a topical cream and took a swab for culture.He then said I'll
call you if its serious.We didn't here from him. None of this seemed
to help and my son had to return home so I asked him to let his
mother take a look because she is an RN and she would know more
than I about this. He went to her home and she took him to the emergency
room at the hospital she works in Dallas because when he stood on
the leg blood would spurt from the wound. it turned out that necrosis
had spread under the skin and was in need of surgery.They used intraveinous
antibiotics and removed the dead tissue,within hours of the surgery
the swelling went down and the red area was nearly gone. this is
still ongoing but the prognosis is good.The wound is in its 8th
day and it is healing well.
New pics taken on 08-20-2005 leg seems to be healing well but a
new spot has shown up on the shin this area was a blister during
the bite. everything seems to be healing well now and looks like
it will be alright. "




In our
opinion, the Anti-venom
healing balm with electrical impluse therapy
completely heals this Black Recluse Spider Bite
Lesion in weeks, not months.

In this photo (the back of
a leg), you can also see what the usual damage can be with this
type of spider bite. The center area is beginning to show signs
of the tissue death, or "necrosis".

Above is another picture showing
a common outcome of being bitten by a Brown Recluse. The necrosis
is very evident, and something which commonly may involve extensive
follow up medical treatment in the form of removal of the dead
tissue and sometimes plastic surgery to correct the damaged area
as much as possible.

Sometimes the venom can spread
in the body and new eruptions can occur. Reports
are that they can occur after a good workout.
It is even more common for the bite to take up to several months
or even years to finally heal completely. Above is a photo of
someone's ankle that was bitten. It represents what the skin area
looked like after a year.
Testimonial

This
is the "after" picture of a bite after the major essential
oil in our balm was used by itself. While the "before"
picture was not taken, this woman's brother took a picture after
her wound had healed. Seeing this result actually inspired us
to continue doing research into the oil, adding other needed
oils and eventually combining it with the magnetic healing earth
for a powerful combination.
The
original wound was approximately the size of the one 3 pictures
up. The oils used in our balm completely healed this
Black Recluse Spider Bite Lesion in 2 weeks
except in one aspect: this woman still gets repeat eruptions.
We feel that if she had used the magnetic healing earth balm,
she wouldn't get the repeat eruptions. It is designed to draw
the venom and bind it.
NOTE: Again, we cannot promise any results or make any claims.
Your results can and will vary, as is often the case with any
natural remedies. If you aren't happy, send it back and we will
refund you the cost of the product minus shipping.
