Reaction to Urticating Hairs

by "LORRAINE-LISA STONE" <lorrainelisa.stone1@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 11, 2006 at 08:17 PM

Hi
My husband has 28 Tarantulas varying from various Brachypelmas,
poecilitus, 
and many more. Unfortunately once in a pet shop i was flick by a
Brachypelma 
Smithi hair when the shop owner opened it house for someone to have a
look.
I had a slight reaction.
Cleaning out some of my husbands spiders the other week i must of come
into 
contact again and this time have had a serious reaction. I treied the
normal 
anti histamine such as piriton but had to go on to a much stronger type of

168mg prescribed by doctor. I fthis doesn't work i may have to go on to
oral 
steroids.
Apart from the obvious of not coming into contact with the hairs again.
Has anyone had a similar experience or any recommended anti histamine that

has worked particular well for them.
Ever suffering L Stone
