About those stings... If this is something new I might be a bit wary as
sensitization may be occuring, instead of the de-sensitization one reads
about over the course of multiple exposures. I myself am allergic to any
type of insect bite (localized swelling, pain, etc) and wasp stings are the
worst- my face puffs up like a balloon but no anaphylactic-type
reaction...
Of course, this does not stop me from keeping bees...
When I get stung by the girls (through my suit or gloves) I take the
following: generic Claritin, generic Zantac and generic Benadryl... One
of each taken together works for me, along with a couple ibuprofen.
Be careful and put on some gloves to reduce exposure...
