Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Ressecting that much tissue would effectively eliminate any compartment pressure, but the pictures reflect a procedure far beyond a simple fasciotomy.
As I stated, the pictures depict extensive tissue ressection and debridement due to massive tissue necrosis.

Respect is something to be earned.
Thus far you have only lost mine.

What I find interesting is that you claim that you had a severe neurotoxic envenomation, yet the only symptom I can recall you describing is loss of motor function. I'll admit that I am no longer up to snuff on the neurologic response to NA crotalid envenomation, but I would have expected something more...especially in the absence of hemotologic symptoms. No dysphagia? Dysphasia? Dyspnea?
Also, you state you were treated with CroFab. Again, I may be mistaken, but isn't CroFab designed to treat the typical hemotoxic envenomation. One of the ways that treatment is measured is via coagulation studies and retreat of symptoms (reduced swelling).

For those of you that didn't see it
Vinny posted a pic of his envenomation in a new thread (shouldn't it have gone here??). Here is the link: http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?&t=76350
I will say that it makes a little more sense now...but what happened to

. That is not the pic of a 100% neurotoxic envenomation...it wouldn't be swollen like that. Are you starting to understand why we are giving you a hard time?? Your stories just don't hold water...too many holes in them.

the curator of reptiles at the philla zoo said that my edb bite was a neurotoxic encenomation.

this is the same guy that said you were a herpetologist without a degree, right?? even knowing about your two envenomations...then again, scientific knowledge doesn't imply that one is smart enough not to get bitten due to stupid mistakes. Just ask, no, I'd better not post his name, lol

That is interesting...

Well crap! You guys covered all the bases already. I am speechless!
Nah, I got something for you vinny. And I mean this with all My heart. As Michael stated above, however much I may doubt you, it would suck to read about you in the paper.
So what I am doing for you here is a true life saver, take it serious, OK. This is a hot box. I want you to make one, pay someone else, steal one, (I am kidding on that last one BTW). Just make one and use it. It will save your life one day I am thinking.
Still looking also. How bout a name for that curator? Would be nice to hear from him about this instead of a copied quote, or email.
Good luck,
Rick
