One tip floating around is to not use a bed - this can be relevant if you have other wounds that you can treat/wait to tick down while remaining online.

Dying to this wound while offline is presumably the result of wounds being processed sequentially - if the server applies increase in Adder Bite before healing in other wounds is taken into an account, it may instantly detect HHP dropping to zero and kill you with no refunds/appeal.
