death from below Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 bloody good job you didnt suffer from anopholaptic shock or what ever it is... OK, good story BUT, now you need to be very carefull indeed, the body may over compensate next time that you get stung and anapholaptic shock could be the result! This could kill you, seriously it could.. This over reaction is caused by the white cells in your body attacking the poison that the wasps have injected into you, the last time that you were stung there was a lot and the body had to deal with it all, so made even more "anti venom" for the future, this can cause the problem of AS.. So be careful, you may not have a reaction, but please be awaire of your breathing etc if you are stung again.. Start swelling, or breathing problems, get to hospital straight away, write down what has happened (you may not be able to speak) then they can give you some adrenaline! OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO......get you.....DR Kildare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mel b3 Posted June 30, 2007 Report Share Posted June 30, 2007 Back again to continue I got stung buy bees/wasps who knows what but they stung , diving out of my hide began to run ,zap zap zap they kept stinging me. WHAT DO YOU DO , running into water came to mind HA! .Swatting at them I lost my hat zap zap zap now having no hat on they were stinging me all over ,off flew my glasses in the effort to brush them away now very frightened and shaking with terror flung myself on the groung and rolled up into a ball pulling my jacket over my head zap another blighter got me.Now shaking like a jelly wondering how long befor they give up. After a while got up and skirted my hide position made my way towards the farm, stumbling over ditches and fences till I got to the farm dipping my burning head under a cold water tap trying to ease the burning pain. My daughter laughing had to take me back to retrieve my glasses, imagine looking for a pair of specks with my MIOPIC vision in a stubble field . I found my speks and retrieved my gun and bid a hasty retteat from the scene of HORROR. On returning home relating this story ,after lotions and potions I should have gone to hospital having recieved so many stings but did not . Idid not suffer any after efects for my ordeal. see now that's why i always take a bucket of water with me when i go shooting , if a swarm of killer wasps attack me i just get straight into the bucket .
