I'm curious as to how long it takes for beekeepers to become "immune" to
bee venom.  I understand that when one is immune to bee stings they still
hurt as much as normally but that there is no swelling or itching
afterwards.  For example,  if one gets stung four times a week on a regular
basis how long would it take?  Also, does it get a lot worse before it gets
better?
