After recieving multiple stings from this species I reealized that the LQ that tagged me a long time ago didn't even get me that good. I was over at a buddy's house(RobertJ) and got tagged by this species causing a sharp pain in my finger and some swelling. Pain was over in an hour.
Pain:3/10
Lasted:Serious pain 10 minutes. Total pain about an hour
Last week I recieved this species for my self and on saturday morning at about 9am I was looking to show my brother (we share a room) my new additions. As soon as I lifted the lid to the container the scorp tagged me about three times in my middle finger. I flicked it off and withing seconds fell the same pain in my finger as the last tag. In about 45-60 seconds later the pain travelled up to my armpit. And for about 1:00 and a half my whole right arm was hurting. 2 hours later my whole right arm plus the right side of my chest was "numb" and I would have spasms of acute pain randomly at intervals of about 10 minutes. That day I went on a pretty intense hike and evertime I used my right arm I would get a sharp pain. At about 6pm I was feeling very lightheaded and weak but this could of been because I was trying really hard not to use my right side of my body to climb a pretty decent sized mountain. At 9pm I felt pretty normal again except when I touched something hard with my right hand my whole right arm was still numb. The next day I woke up feeling good but my middle finger(the inflicted area) was still numb. I tested the pain level my slapping my arm against a wall, no pain. I tested my hand by slapping my hand on a table, only pain was in my middle finger. The feeling lasted all day.
Day 3, Today: no more pain what so ever but my middle finger is still numb and slightly swollen.
Pain level: 8/10
Intense pain period: PEAK; 1 hour, intense; 1 day
Lasted: Day three and I'm still feeling the effects. Bottom line: DONT GET TAGGED BY THIS SPECIES.
