Description
An antidote once deadlier than the venom it treated. A bite that can masquerade as appendicitis. And a patient whose worsening symptoms demand a careful risk-benefit decision.
Your patient. Your diagnosis. Your decision.
An interactive wilderness medicine case involving envenomation, severe abdominal pain, muscle cramping, autonomic symptoms, evolving antivenom safety, and diagnostic uncertainty.
