Is there a difference between a bee sting "allergy" and the fact that
when I get stung the spot gets red, itches, swells a bit, etc?   I'm a
novice - 5 years and a few hives.  I get stung 3- 4 times a year.
 
Best guess, should I go to an alergist/ or consider a desensitization
program?
If I were to go through the "desensitization" would I not be bothered at
all by the occasional sting (as if it were just a splinter)?
