If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!! THIS IS AN EX-SCORPION!!

I just got back from the emergency room. They said there's not much they can do. I just have to ride it out. The pain and tingling has now extended to my elbow and it will continue to get worse over the next hour or so. After that it'll ease up but I'll continue to have problems over the next 48-72 hours. (I got stung by one of the more venemous ones.)
The funny thing is that I have lived in Arizona and California most of my life and this is the first time I've ever seen a scorpion in the house.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

Yeah, I know a bunch of people who have been stung. Like your doc said, not much you can do but ride it out.Talk about pets and post pictures at Talk Pets!

So how did it happen? Were you reaching for it to get rid of it or did it sneak up on you when you had your hand somewhere or...?
