Feeling weird...

[bryan555]

On the way to work this morning a bee flew into my helmet vent and stung me on the headpiece :shock:

Now I feel like I have had 8 tequilas in the day, fallen asleep and woken up on somebody's sofa at 11pm :?

I need tea.

Just think how the bee feels.

Not 100% sure that's a good sign, however if it helps the morning pass quicker it can't be all bad?

Feeling better after my cuppa Though I have a little lump on by big bald forehead.

Still feel bad about the bee though. I couldn't stop in time and he stung me as I took off the lid. He just dropped to the floor to die a slow, painful death. I helped him on his way but feel awful about it.

Bee Killer you your a monstrous murdered of our winged friends bet you also steal honey aswell

on a more serious note if you have never been stung and had a reaction like that i would take it easy in case its a reaction

When it happened I remembered an early edition of 999 that I watched, and a fella got stung in the mouth and nearly died. They had to air lift him from a tricky position by a canal.

I spent the rest of my ride to work imagining my head would swell up and and crush my brain. Fortunately there is plenty of space for the sting to expand into so I think I'll be OK.

You maybe one of those people that have quite a bad reaction to bee stings, it can be serious and I would mention it to your gp

Yes. My dad swells up like a boxing glove if he gets stung by a bee. It can be cumulative as well - the more you are stung, the worse it gets. Have it checked out.

i recommend going to a and e
even if they just give you anti histamines
what if your anapyhlactic?


on another note, i have always wondered how the bee dies after the sting?
bleeds out from its stinger hole?

I ate a kiwi a few months ago and 20mins later I was doubled up in pain and my throat started to swell, quite unnnerving.

GP told me that if I try kiwi again it would likely be a worse reaction as you body fights double hard against its previous experience..so eppi pen is the way forward.

You should check just in case.
