Call it bitten or stung it still hurts like a motherfucker, pardon my French. Yesterday afternoon while out shopping with friends a bee, a wasp, something yellow and black with wings got his teeth into me and since I haven’t been bitten by anything bigger than a mosquito in the last few years I couldn’t recall if I was allergic.

Turns I am! Not the deadly need EpiPen now kind of way, but in my arm is swollen the size for baseball bat kind of way. Of course I went to the pharmacy got some Benadryl but the arm kept swelling and this how I found myself at the emergency clinic to be told to up the Benadryl dose to 4 times a day and monitor redness and swelling. I tell you life stings my friends.
