Susan asked for any information on bee sting allergy shots. While thankfully
I don't have any personal experience, perhaps this info would help. Recently
our Provincial Apiarist, Doug McRory sent an email around asking for names
of Doctors who do allergy treatments, with the intent to compile a list. She
and anyone out there who may have helpful info should contact him . His
