I got stung by a bee yesterday while watering flowers at work. I felt really tired on the way home, which I heard was normal, then proceeded to eat dinner (I was sneezing by this point), go to sleep earlier than usual, and then woke up an hour later from my "nap". I sat up and felt super congested, sneezy etc, with what could best be described as an "allergy cough" you'd get from something like hay fever. But I never once felt like I couldn't breathe (save for the congestion) and had no feeling of shortness of breath when not breathing out of my nose. I took some ibuprofen and the sneeziness went away soon after. >tl;dr Should I still see an allergist? I work outdoors and while I've been stung before I don't wanna randomly drop dead from something as preventable as a bee sting.
>>2840344You probably have undiagnosed HIV that is complicating your VERY MINOR wound. Get tested at your local clinic and glove up for sex, assuming you have any. Protip, don't try to pick up girls at the clinic, they are there for the same reason you are.
>>2840349Yeah yeah, I know, you're right! Hell, it might even be rabies for all I know!!!
>>2840351Nope, definitely HIV. t. EMT
>>2840344Sounds about normal. Tough it out and your immune system will be stronger.
>>2840367Oh, I'm not afraid of pain, don't worry. I just wanna know if I had a normal reaction or if I'm in some kind of dangerous cohort. Thanks for the reply. Still likely going to see an allergist for knowledge's sake.
