I got done over by bees many years ago, my own fault, I was using a
tractor Rotavator and rotovated across the front of 3 hives, they took
exception.
Wasps, I would have been dead in less than 10 mins with the number of
stings I had.

You probably feel as if you have had a kicking.
If you have any antihistamine tablets (Hay fever/travel sickness tablets
then take a dose, it could still help.

Antihistamine is what my doctor gave me.
I feel much better now.
I thought I was going to die.
I still feel weak.

You need to talk to your doc about an Epipen. When my bees went for
me, I woke in the night feeling as if I had the worst case of flu known
to man. One eye was swollen shut the other I could only open to a
minute amount. That was around 16 stings and that's a load of venom. I
don't get used to bee stings, I get worse. You do need to check this
very carefully. Wasps seem more aggressive than bees, ime and imo and I
will avoid them at all costs!

Well, early this morning my left eye was itching like mad when I was in
bed, and I felt soooo ill as well. I got up to go to the bathroom to
spash a bit of water on it and when I looked in the mirror the right side
of my face had dropped I thought my god ive had a stroke. I woke Reykha
and she dialed 999. Bells pausly the doctor said,after hours of tests I
never heard of it. Not a stroke. It might take a while to get back to
normal.
I had a similar amount of sting but all close together some up my nose.
hat makes my left eye itch seemmingly. I have had drops in that eye and
it feels better. Quite close to shut that eye, soa i know what you mean.

Coming in a day late but you may need an injection from your doc. I'm
allergic to bees and swell up alarmingly if stung. But a number of
stings produces a really dangerous reaction from either wasps or bees
in some people. It's probably worth a chat with the doctor anyway. This
time of year they're either very dozy and crawling into unexpected
shelves etc. or even shoes! I believe there's a theory that the later
in the season, the more venom in the sting but I don't know if that's
true. You have my deep sympathy, it hurts like hell. Someone here got
two stings on her nose the other day, while standing under an apple
tree. It was not a pretty sight but she had no allergic reaction,
thank goodness.
