Kevin Craig+FollowTexas woman’s spider bite nightmareA rural Texas woman’s terrifying rash turned out to be from a brown recluse spider bite, not an allergic reaction as doctors first thought.

This story is a wild reminder that even a tiny spider can cause major chaos—how would you react if this happened to you? #Health #BodyHealth #TexasNews01Share

Even more disturbing, texts and emails revealed officials and experts may have hyped these cases for personal gain, including book deals and media appearances.
