Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsMedical advice needed!! I'm not sure what the problem is, but my googling
suggests that it's probably a gunshot wound. Also, I'm having stabbing chest pains, the entire left side of my body is numb, and I've been bitten repeatedly by a large rattlesnake. I also might be coming down with a cold.
Has anyone dealt with this before? What should I do?

It's slightly cheaper but just as ineffective as Reiki.

Once that is done, check back in and tell us how you feel. Any further advice requires knowing that the venom is out of your system.

Now, you're covered. You'll be fine.
My bill is in the mail.
You're welcome.

(26,598 posts)Basically it's alcohol + dirt + cayenne + woo - whether it's a rash, bullet, snake, or something else! Wish I'd asked sooner; now I feel silly for paying physicians over all these years...
