I've busted my knee several times, fractured a wrist, cut open my head, but none of that even came close. I ended up pouring almost boiling hot water over my right arm and getting all burned & blistered just to stop the poison from reaching my internal organs. At one point, I was screaming at my brother to cut off my arm since I could feel the poison almost to my chest cavity & I figured I'd rather lose an arm than a vital organ. (Now I'm glad he didn't listen) Sold the Volitan the next day.

HOLY CRAP! I had no idea it was THAT bad (being stung)! YIKS!!!! You could actually feel the poison movin in your body?
