Never figured out what bit you?
Never figured out what it was that caused it. As I type this, I can't even feel the spot where they were. The swelling around the neck area is completely gone. The joints still ache, and the fever is still barely there. I just figured someone on the forum might have had a similar experience and in the process identified the critter....
My brother in law suggested a spider might have been hiding in my helmet. I store it on a shelf in the garage. I just think if a spider was the culprit, he wouldn't have waited almost two hours from when I put the helmet on.
