i was stung by a scorpion, already went to doctor, anyone have any other info for me?

doc said take vicodin or over the counter ibuprophen but not really helping anyone have similar experience or any additional info that may help me? Symptoms are headache, localized swelling, itching, excessive sweating, extreme chills, numbness and tingling in fingers and toes, joint pain, leg pain and cramping, tenderness in ears and neck(stung on back left of neck), after the doctor i developed clear blisters on forehead down to lobes of ears.

Does anyone know much about vastilitic nuerophathy?

Answers:
You can put antibiotics around the sting but tell your doctor if it hurts more or if you have allergic reactions. At any rate, don't worry! you won't die. And the blisters.I would recommend smearing baby oil on them

am i weird because i refuse to take painkillers?

There is an antidote for scorpion bites, you sound like you need it badly.
And make sure the scorpion(s) is out of people's way, it can be fatal for children.

how do you know if you have a busted ear drum?

Well if what the doc says isn't working, ask another one, but my advice for you would be "Don't play with scorpions,it might sting you"
