I remember getting stung as a kid and it didn't seem like a big deal. When I was in my 20's and 30's I don't recall getting stung or having a major incident with insects. Now that I'm in my 40's, I've had several yellow jacket stings in the past few years, and come to find out I have a severe alergy to those. Swelling is bad for two weeks and takes longer to subside completely. I went to the doctor when I got stung on my hand and they gave me a steroid shot. It was also recommended that I have an epipen in the event I got stung in the neck. I've been wondering if my alergy would be the same for wasps, bees, hornets, mud daubers, etc. as it is the yellow jackets. I don't want to find out.
