It is important to remember that you can gain or lose an allergy to just about anything at any point in your life!. Bee toxin is bad for the body, so it is almost natural for the body to develop an antibody response to it after repeated exposure!.
For your current issue, start off by taking two Benedryll before bed and put some hydrocortizone cream (10%) over the affected area!. Know now that the next sting could be fatal!.
If stung by a bee in the future, immediately remove the venom sack as it will continue to pump in toxin!. If you have tweezers available, then remove the stinger!. Be aware that wasps may also trigger an allergic response!.
Apply a cold compress to reduce blood flow into and out of the area!. This will delay the onset of anaphylactic shock!.
Next, take two Benedryll or other 4-6 hour antihistamine!. Even though it will be nasty, it is best to crush one of the pills and take the other whole with a full glass of water!. This will increase the rate that the medication hits your system!.
Sit down and relax with your cold compress on the sting area!. If you notice any difficult breathing, you feel really hot or cold, or you start to swell to freakish proportions, then seek medical attention as you may require an epinephrine injection to avoid shock!.
You should also seriously consider having epi-pen on hand from now on!. These are spring-loaded shots of epinephrine that could keep you from dying due to shock until the antihistamine kicks in!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You are allergic to bee stings now!. Many allergies develop because of a "cumulative" effect!. What that means is that every time you are exposed to something, your body develops an immune reaction a little bit more each time until one day the reaction actually produces symptoms!. You definitely need to go to the hospital to get Benadryl or a shot of epinephrine and perhaps even get what is called an "epinephrine pen" because future allergic reactions may indeed be worse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
The best natural anti poison substance is activated charcoal!. Yes, like the stuff you put in a fish tank, and yes, you can use that!. It tastes bad, but it is edible!. You can either ingest it (With Gel Caps) or you can put it on the sting, I suggest getting it wet so that it will stick!.
