Have you ever been stung by a bee?

[dreamyxo]

No never and I am terrified of bees because I hate pain.

I have been stung more than once, but both incidents were when I was a child. I was nervous already around them even before I got stung, but now since the incidents I'm freaked out by them.

I can remeber being stung by most of the stingting insects and to be honest the bee sting was a lot easier to deal with than the wasp and hornet stings which got me mutliple times.  The only real problem I ever had with Bee stings happened at a pool as I was leaving and a swarm of them attacked and for some reason were mad at my foot as I was stung at least 7 times.

I have gotten stung by a wasp one time while moving our lawn when I lived back east - right on the head.
Also, another time, back east, there was nest of yellow jackets in our bushes in the house I grew up in.  My mother's solution was to spray the bush with water.
Lucky me who was mowing the lawn at the time, got stung 4 times on the legs when I mowed near the area about 10 minutes later.  Fortunately since I was walking at the time,
the stings were not that bad.  It felt like about 4 hot needles touched my leg.

When I was about 6 years old I got stung in the upper lip by bumble bees so bad that my lip swelled up so much that it was touching the tip of my nose. I've been stung many other times in my life but I think that was the worst. I'm not allergic to bee stings.

Yes; I've been stung several times, while picking flowers.... Like someone said, it felt like a hot needle after getting the stinger out.
Now; Why I'm using "hudsonmike09" quote "I've been stung many other times in my life.... I'm not allergic to bee stings."...
Be Careful because what I've heard is you can be stung several times in the past thinking "I'm not allergic to bee stings"...BUT... the next time (or the next) you could end up in the hospital... I had a friend got stung on the neck riding his bike (65 HD), they had to cut-off his helmet his head was the size of 2 basketballs...Yeah, he looked funny but was in the hospital 4 days... He also said (like You & I) "I'm not allergic" but the Dr. said "Ya never know when"...
So any-ol-way, Just Bee (couldn't help myself...lol) Careful..

Yes, I have been stung by a bee.  I was walking past some hedges, did not see the bees in the hedges, and a bee stung me in my arm.   The sting was so painful, I began to cry.  After the bee stung me, it left its stinger in my arm.  The longer the stinger was in my arm, the longer the pain continued.  I took a pair of tweezers and pulled the stinger out.  Afterwards, the painful sting subsided.

Wow, reading this post made me remember when I was about 9 I got stung on my eye lid and my whole face swelled up. For something to be so small it sure packs a big punch.

I like bees because they are kind to us and give us sweets to put on things like pancakes and biscuits. I am not afraid of them put, I am afraid of being stung by them. I have been stung before and that feeling makes you want to leap out of your shoes. I hope it never happens again.

I remember being 8 years old and caught some bees in a jar.  I dropped the jar off in a tree and reached back in to get the jar.  I got stung by a bee on my eye.  My late grandmother dipped snuff and put some of that snuff juice on my eye.  It did not swell much and I was back outside playing the next day.  My daughter was stung on her stomach by a bee when she was 2.  She has been fearful of them since then.

I've been stung by a bee and a wasp. While neither was any fun, the wasp sting was infinitely worse.
