> > extremely allergic to wasp stings (entire arm swells up, etc.)<<

1: I take this as normal allergic, but nothing to fool with. The "extreme"
thing begins when the reaction is more than local. Difficulty breathing,
sweating, hives all over the body...

2 The wasp has a different toxin than the honey bee. He could be allergic to
one and not the other. A physician could probably tell you more about this.
He could also do a series of shots in systematic desensitization, even if he
is allergic.

Hope this helps,
