Tone's symptoms do not sound like anaphylactic shock. The most prominent and threatening symptom of that is difficulty breathing or swallowing. When people who are truly allergic to bee stings get stung even once, it's a 911 situation if they don't have an epinephine injector with them. Being covered with a rash is also a classic symptom, as Don described. If the bee has left its stinger in your skin, don't grab it to pull it out. That may result in squeezing more poison into your skin. Scrape it off. If it's any comfort to you, the bee dies after stinging you. It's a suicide attack to protect the hive. -- Mixon ----------------------- You may "Reply" to the address from which this message was sent, but note the following permanent addresses for long-term use: Personal: bmi...@alumni.uchicago.edu AMCS: edi...@amcs-pubs.org, sa...@amcs-pubs.org
