How about this ... I'll keep taking the antibiotics for today and tomorrow, and if there is no improvement, or it gets worse, then I'll go over to the closest minor-emergency clinic and have it seen to.

I did get a few more bites on my face last night ... mosquito. This is the first year that we've had mosquitos out here, but I suspect that the drought is leaving most of the creeks and small ponds as stagnet pools.

Maybe on Wednesday and only if absolutely necessary. I can think of a lot of things I could use $1000 for that I would like better than having several lidocaine injections just for the purpose of opening up my arm. Really ... it's simple to do ... you just take a very sharp cutting implement (preferably sterilized), and poke it through your skin and then move it (quickly) until you've got a one or two inch opening.
