Default Teddy is still reacting to this bite!! Poor Baby

Teddy woke me up by vomiting on the bed and shaking. He seems to have some discomfort in his stomach. His turkey waddle area of the neck is swelling a little. My vet said that the reaction can take several days which is why the benedryl must be continued. They did his blood work while there and it was excellent, so I don't think anything else is going on with him. He did not want to eat initially but when I put his pills in some peas, he became very excited and did eat that (he loves peas). He doesn't seem to feel well, but I'm not sure taking him back to the vet right now is in his best interest. I am thinking of just checking him at noon, and if no improvement, see the vet.

This is kind of scary and I thought yesterday I was at the end of this. Whatever bit my Teddy must have been very venomous!

For anyone interested, I found this video that I thought was interesting on home care for bites.
