OK, I'm still freaking out about this. This past Sunday I woke in the morning and notice my right arm had bites from my wrist, up to my shoulder in 5 different areas in clusters. On the back right of my upper arm shoulder...there are a cluster of about 5 puncture wounds. They have scabbed over today. I don't have any other bites on my body. I did go to my doctor's yesterday to have my arm checked out. She said they look like a spider bite. I was worry they could have been bed bug bites. She said no...they were not bed bug bites, because she sees a few cases a week with bed bug bites and they look nothing like what I have.

If they were bed bugs bites, I don't know where I could have picked them up at. I haven't been anywhere to get them. I did take all my bedding, off my bed Sunday and washed it in hot water and dried it on high heat, in the dryer. My DH helped me flip the mattress, checked everything, vacuum under the bed, etc. I'm still afraid to sleep in my bed, after doing all this. DH has been sleeping in the bed with no problems. My DH did spray around the basement & outside around the foundation.

My doctor did give me 2 prescriptions for the bites. 1 taken by mouth & a cream to put on the sores. I have never had anything like this before. I'm am still scared somewhat.

Have any of you experience this?
