Your choice !

First - to answer your question:
No. I follow the legal process. Your stupid question gave me only two options - breaking the law like an idiot and incorrectly trying to self medicate myself like a cement-headed moron or dying.
The third option should have been to act like a responsible hot owner and obtain non-FDA approved antivenin through the proper process and have a qualified physician on board to treat me in the case of an envenomation.
Second - getting back to your lack of judgment:
So you're telling us that you will inject antivenin much like a flu shot? That it's some miracle drug that will make the effects of envenomation magically disappear? That you won't need any aftercare?
Have you figured out how many vials you will need Einstein?
Newsflash - you don't just "inject" antivenin.
Newsflash - most hospitals will perform a horse-serum sensitivity test to make sure you don't have an adverse reaction to the antivenin.
Newsflash - you will need aftercare.
Newsflash - after you "inject" your vial of antivenin, you will need to go to a hospital. When they find out you purchased the antivenin without a permit, they will contact the Feds.
You will then be saddled with a large hospital bill and a large legal bill.
Good luck, you are gonna need it. Hope you don't have a massive systemic reaction to it! I would hate to think that as you are dying on the floor of your kitchen from a massive bout of anaphylaxis that your last thought would be that maybe you should have listened to me.
