Default Re: BEWARE OF THE FIDDLEBACK SPIDER

Jacqie:

Believe it or not, she says it isn't that painful, other than once in a while while changing dressings. Sometimes the flesh will grow a bit into the gauze or sponge (when the wound vac is in use) and it tears when removed. Of course, the health care providers keep telling us that the bleeding is a GOOD thing, and will promote healing.

You are correct. She is a trooper... and an angel. Not once during this whole ordeal has she complained once.
