    I have been stung by a yellow jacket. On my way to ER

  • #2
    I hate yellow jackets! They're surly little beasts that chase people around for no good reason and sometimes it seems they're EVERYWHERE this time of year. Why can't they be like honey bees or bumblebees? Calm, sedate creatures that don't have a quarrel with anyone unless they're messed with. Even other kinds of wasps just want to go about their day. But not yellow jackets, noooo.

    May your wait be short, your treatment effective and your bill managable.

      Ouch! Hope everything is ok. I am like a little school girl around bees..or anything that stings.

        They gave me the meds to counteract the reaction, watched me for an hour and let me come home, where I can not be alone for 24 hours. I think I am going to take a nap

          Naps are good. There are days that I miss sleep. Sleep is good.

            Nap is fine as long as you're not alone at all. Considering I'm allergic to anything with a stinger, I'm definitely sending good thoughts your way. Should I assume (I know...) that you have an epipen handy?

                Eek.

                I'm thinking you might want to set up some sort of reminder to get that handled.

                Google Calendar will send email reminders when you have things come up.

                  Hope you're doing okay. Those things are nasty.

                  Years ago there was picnic table in a park here that someone had carved a giant yellow jacket drawing into. We figured the person was probably carried off by yellow jackets just as he finished...They were all over that area.

                    I had taken Bug to the park and we had a real bad rain yesterday. Someone had put mulch on the bottom of the slides to soak up the water. I went to brush off the mulch and there was a yellow jacket in the mulch. It got me on the tip of my right pinkie. It makes typing interesting. So far so good. I have another dose of meds to take in an hour before I go to bed. Hubby has been very hovering making sure I am not having problems

                        Owww! Not sure if that's better or worse than the one I stepped on barefoot...

                        Have you had desensitizing shots at all?
