Well, it was my wife who stuck herself while I was holding the snake. I called the vet today and she said it would be OK just clean it, but to call the DR. This is where it gets crazy. So my wife called the DR's office. Some how the person on the phone kept thinking she got bit. She kept telling her no, I did not get bit. Then she asked what was in the needle, so she told her, cezahphlaldslksd (somthing like that). Then the girl said well we need to see you. She was not current on her Tetnis shots, so that was a concern of hers. Because they said even though the needle was new it was in the snake.



So we went and saw the Dr. On the board it said Snake bite, in the room, ahahahaha, she again kept saying it was not a bite. So the Dr finally gets in the room and asks what happened. And since he thought it was a bite, was going to just let her go. Then he read the notes and saw, and said to be on the safe side they gave her a tentis shot and some medication if she needs it. So to make a long story short, had she been current on her tetnus shot, there would have been nothing to do.



So when you run into this issue, thats what happened.



I did tease my wife and say she was going to get her super powers now, but would most likley be a villian. I am waiting for the weird powers, I told her to flicker her tounge and tell me how cold it was outside, ahahhahaha. I should be slapped for that.



Thanks for everyone who posted, and I hope nothing else happens but if it does I will let you know.
