Yesterday was a bad day

[TeresaHip]

Totally not peptide related. I got a nasty dog bite yesterday. Took a big hunk out of my calf in the back. Dog was not vaccinated and is a mangy mutt. The owner is nasty! She smells like cat pee and you can smell her house walking by. They say she has 30ish cars in her house. So anyway I was just walking by down the middle of the road. We live in a trailer park. It came running out of the house and attacked me. I was hysterical and so traumatized. I had to go to er because it was bleeding bad. I had to get rabies vaccine and have to do 3 more. I also had rabies immune globulins shots. It was like the size of a insulin needle. They had to be placed in the bites and around it. Probably 50ish total. It couldn't be stitched because if it's got bacteria in it stitching it will hold the bacteria in and it would eat away inside and will attach itself to my knee hardware. It was the most awful thing I've probably been through. That says a lot because I've been through some stuff.
So how was y'all's Sunday?

Oh no! So sorry that happened to you. I had a minor dog incident years ago (nothing like yours - mostly teeth marks). Those shots were painful! I called off work after the 1st one due to the pain that felt like someone had kicked me as hard as they could on my gut.
I hope you feel better soon.❤️

That is a horrible day. I was attacked by a dog as a kid and I still get flashbacks from fighting for my life against a Doberman that was as big as I was. It has made me wary of dogs my entire life. Those jabs in around the bite really hurt as does the wound itself, those hell hounds have sharp long teeth!

I was just so mad at the nasty lady that don't take care of a dog. I mean she's really nasty and filthy and gross. And I'm not trying to be rude but yeah she's something else. And the dog poor thing I'm a dog lover and I like dogs rap two of my own but and that dog does not need to be with her. She just isn't responsible pet owner. But now I'm going to be really leery when I'm out walking my dogs in this neighborhood. I'm going to be jumpy and scared for a while

Hopefully they scrubbed it clean as well as gave you the rabies shots and gave you some antibiotics. Dog bites are notorious for getting infected, so keep a close eye on it and be prepared to go to the emergency department if it starts looking infected. ( red/swollen/fever etc)

Yes Steph and who's came by to when the sheriff's office came and they cleaned it really good and wrapped it and told me to get to the emergency room the emergency room really cleaned it very very very well. And I'm on two antibiotics so yeah I'm covered. My husband rewraps it for me so if anything looks off it takes a picture so I can see it. I've had to change the bandages a couple times because the they don't stick to your calf very well it's almost in the bend at my knees. They keep coming off so tomorrow I'm going to go get some balls and wrap around it. I have to take it off and change it every day because I have to put some antibiotic ointment on it.

Oh my goodness that post was a jumbled up mess LOL using text to talk and sometimes it gives me fits. One thing I can correct out a whole thing without just going through shit is the ambulance came with the sheriff's department and they looked at my leg and cleaned it and told me I needed to go to the emergency room.
