    They can't do much for you at the hospital but I would go to get checked out and get muscle relaxers for all the cramping. Getting bit by a pokie does NOT sound like a pleasurable experience at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not to mention you have symptoms from the bite for weeks after. I don't know about the force but the longer the fangs the more possiable mechanical damage they can do to you. Plus whatever bacteria are on the fangs.
