Soak your arm in hot water (or at least very warm) to break up the venom. There was a thread on this just the last couple of days. Your friend lied to you buddy. It's the nastiest pain I've ever felt & I've had some doozies of injuries over the years. (got stung in '85 before there was much info on these fish & no internet yet)

Maybe take some Benadryl and go see the Doc.
Don't take a chance.

Dude seriously get to the hospital. I can't believe you would listen to your buddy and not go unless your buddy happens to be a physician.

Glad you're good now
 I got stung by my GBTA the other day. Hurt some, but not too badly. Then I remembered the hot water thing, so I ran water as hot as I could stand it over my stung hand and the pain went away immediately. That was great! And no ER room, either

Yep Anthony's right get your arm into some water as hot as you can take.
Take a dose of benadril if you have it. If you have someone to keep an eye on you, You could try waiting it out If you do feel light headed or you get any red line's on your arm Id say get your ass to the ER. Never been stung myself but from what ive heard it effects people diffrently. Some people say its the worst pain they have ever felt. While others say its about as bad as a bee sting. But then again were dealing with guys here so its hard to tell where the BS factor kicks in.
