+10000000 what every one said. I agree that you should not have continued, but I'm glad things turned out OK after your scary ordeal. I understand your frustration.
When I was a kid I was stung on the side of my neck by a yellow jacket. My neck swelled up and I had to go to either the ER or a doctor of some type. I've been stung by a bee since then, but I've never had another allergic reaction again.
Yen- I will see a doctor but I am debating if my problem was caused because of a special situation. The wasp or bee tried to get into my slightly open mouth. Lucky my teeth prevented it getting in my mouth.
I think I got stung inside my mouth on the lower lip where all the blood vessels are. I also may have crushed the bee or wasp in my frantic effort to get rid of it. I am thinking that all of that made things worse.
That does not imply that I am not concerned. I am.
