If there's a particular prayer to Mother Nature to prevent in perpetuity 17 stings or any stings in the ear or -- good gawd -- on the tonsil, I gotta learn it.

Another quick encounter was when I was driving with window open. Something came in like a line drive and smacked into my fore head. "Is that a bug? ...Is that a b..." And STINGO!

A friend only found out she was allergic when as an adult she was stung on Appalachian Trail in the Presidential Range in NH during her thru-hike, and hadda get the hell off the trail FAST with the symptoms and get attention, and then carry the pen and big caution ever since.

i never had an anaphylactic reaction to wasps, or the one bee sting... until the first time i got several stings at once. maybe 5 stings but the one, in the center of my calf, had it's stinger in me for ~30-60 seconds straight while a carefully walked down a slippery wet wooden staircase carrying a case of collectable bottles.
then my armpits started swelling, and behind my knees, then my throat.
i took a few ephedra capsules that i happened to have (which the scumbag fda has now taken off the market) and laid down, intending to die.
but i didn't die.

it took a single day for me to love my full faced helmet... got my first one after riding from State Penn to Temple(?)'s Spring Fling (or whatever they were calling the outdoor music thing going on. it was cold and rainy . i got one before riding home. have pretty much always worn one since. can be constrictive and hot in the summer, but that and protective clothing are so worth the discomfort
