My wife had a reaction similar to David's. She was stung on the head from a
bee that came through the veil. She got short of breath turned bright red,
like a sunburn, which slowly changed to a full body rash and the ended up
with a whopper of a headache. Her breathing was ok after a rest and there
was no throat restriction so we waited it out. She was fine in a day which
was much better then normal stings, and local swelling was at a min
(suggesting that the venom was quickly spirited off to all parts of her
body). Her next sting on the hand was pretty typical (catcher's mitt
sting).
