'People think I’ve had too much botox - but it was a SPIDER bite'
"I got called a few names like Mr Magoo, Kingpin and I was puffy and red. I told people Sandra had hit me with a frying pan, it's not a good look.
"My face swelled enough that I couldn't wear my baseball cap, couldn't see properly out of my left eye and looked like someone had been over-indulgent with the Botox injections."He said: "I might have been getting funny looks at work the next day but I didn't take any notice, I was talking to all the dogs that I've adopted on my walk.
"I felt a tingle on my tongue and I started getting worried because the last thing I wanted was my tongue swelling up and a tube down my throat to help me breathe. "They couldn't say for sure without the spider there but in the centre of my forehead I had two little pin pricks which could have been the fangs. It didn't even buy me a drink."It doesn't hurt at all, it just feels like I've got water under my skin. The weirdest thing is having a wash because you move the skin but the fluid underneath stays put, it's the weirdest feeling.
"If it hasn't gone down when the tablets have finished I need to go back to hospital, I'll look like myself again soon but it may not be an advantage.
