<p>[QUOTE="gregsglass, post: 67465, member: 78"]Hi SIS,</p><p> The first sting does nothing each sting afterwards gets progressively worse. I think I was stung the first time about age six, nothing afterwards until I was 10 then I noticed the swelling. The time after that instant swelling and trouble breathing. Then I did not get stung for many years. When I was 20 I got stung again and just had swelling of my hand. When 22 got stung and instant swelling and gulpping air. Carried the epinegrene and a syringe, no Eipens then. The first time I used an Eipen I had my thumb on it and jabbed my thigh. The needle went into my thumb and I had to be rushed to the ER. Once was enough, I learned to read before I needed it. No one in my family has ever been allergic to wasp stings, but as soon as I became allergic I lost my sensitivity to poison ivy. I can rip the stuff out bare handedly and never get a rash. I remember taking a girl out into the woods and she was covered with the rash. I got nothing.</p><p>greg[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
