I'm not a scientist, but I think you may have gotten stung by one of the "africanized" bees. I got stung by one in Germany 20 years ago, and they had to cut my BDU uniform shirt off to get to my shoulder. Up till then, I've never had a reaction to any kind of sting before that. But that one knocked me in the dirt. I started running a fever, felt like my arm was on fire too. Had to get a double Benadryl + Epi shot to get over it.

i was really playin up the africanized gimic. it was probably a coincidence, but the events prior to the sting may have had something to do with the attack in question. i was at a hose shop dropping off and picking up coolers for extracurricular activities and this bee was flyin around by my feet, and when it landed, i ended it for him. i left the shop on my way to another job, following the boss' son and about 5 minutes and 2 miles later, this other bee flies in to the cab of the van and lights my arm up. i had to pull the stinger out, and within a couple minutes my arm felt very hot, and the area around the sting was swelled up. by that evening, about 3 hours later my arm was pretty swelled up and was that way for about 2-3 days. at day 2, i decided i should take something for it, some claritin and motrin did the trick for the pain, and in another day the swelling started to go away. i can still feel where the stinger went in, but it doesn't hurt anymore.

I didn't think Afro bees were any more potent,just that they attacked in gangs and were more violent. Also like killing there own kind.
