I have  even experienced systemic reactions from a bee sting: got itchy 
palms,  itchy feet and broke out in hives 


Happened to me once about 25 years ago. The Doctor told me to give up  
beekeeping.  I had hives again last year after a clutch of wasp stings and  so now 
keep anti histamines in the car.
