Status update!
As some of you know I was bitten on the ankle by a copperhead two nights ago. I spent about 12 hours in the hospital being observed before I went home. No anti-venin given or needed. Mostly not needed for copperhead bites.
I am home now and much of the swelling and the painfulness of touching my skin has disappeared. My ankle is still swollen a bit and a little painful when I walk. It doesn't bend well at this point. But things are improving. And that's enough.
