HELP! URGENT! POTENTIALLY LIFE OR DEATH!

I was trying to sleep on the couch, when i felt something bite my leg. I grabbed it, and turned on the light. It was a spider.
It looked like this (http://www.termite.com/spider-identi...tml#blackhouse) (house spider) exept the body was brown and the abdomen was light-brown. It was abouy the size of half a penny, including the legs.
What was it? Is it poisonous???

Nope no red you'll be fine, from my knowlege of spiders.

Ok, form the VERY Site you just linked to.

Venom toxicity - the bite of the Black House Spider is poisonous but not lethal. Certain people bitten experience severe pain around the bite site, heavy sweating, muscular pains, vomiting, headaches and giddiness. First aid and medical attention (ambulance) should be sought as soon as possible.

...I dunno if it's that urgent, really. You'll be fine most likely.

nah...you will be fine.

but to make you feel even better...

*throws ice cream*

Yeah because you're obviously concern about your health by going online instead of calling 911 or something.

calm down, you'll make it worse if your harts pumping harder sending more posion around your body so calm down, from the sounds of it you'll be fine, it would have been better if you where a little more discrpitve though

I believe in recent news, someone twittered that they were drowning (or something similar) and a friend who say called 911 and they were saved.

Well if you are really concerned, go to the doctor. But if it wasnt a fiddle spider, brown recluse or a widow, youre most likely fine.

yeah that's true...I got bitten by a brown recluse spider once.
so you see you will be fine.

how silly, go to the hospital.

I can't tell if this is a fail stab at trolling or you are really, really stupid.

Why would you seek the council of people on internet message boards instead of immediately calling 911 or your nearest hospital?

I don't think he's trolling. And I don't think it makes him stupid, really. Perhaps he's not as concerned as he's making it seem.

"Drowing n a lake. brb soon".

Seriously, how stupid can people be? It's obviously that how they twittered somebody, on a cell phone, would it be easier to call 911 unless 911 didn't work in the area? And the guy who almost drowned must had a friend online (who must not have a life). We're talking about a kid who may not know anyone IRL on ZU.

I don't think he is smart, if he cared at all he would have gone right to the hospital.

Umm, that sounds like a brown recluse man :/

that's true if you were that worried that much about a bite,then you should've called 911.

yea dude what erea do you live, that would be help full
