I had a thought.

Yesterday, I got stung on the Plantation 2 times by my bees.

I used to be allergic somewhat to them, but this time i had no real ill effect except for a little bit swollen finger.

So, I was thinking that as the sting is poison and it creates a zone in the area of the sting of white blood cells....all swarming in to kill the invading trouble.

Now, from white I know from my failed biology classes.....actually dont remember doing any biology classes....the white cells are good for repairing damaged areas and fighting infections and other stuff etc etc.

So, if i stung myself in an area where i had a problem, it would create a zone of repair and it should also help mend an exisitng problems in that area.

I have a damaged elbow from lifting all the rocks on the river for the bungalow and it has not got better over last 3 months.

So, i thunked, I would sting the elbow and see if it helps.

I figure on 2 stings a week for 4 weeks and see how that goes. if that does nothing I will do 3 at once twice a week.

I started today, caught a little bee and held him on the desired spot....ouch.

Normally you should squeeze the sting out, not pull it out as that would squeeze in more venom.

When you sting yourself, you have to get your moneys worth for the pain, so i squeezed the sting and poison sac and pushed it in good and hard to get max effect.

So the experiment begins....next sting is due on Wednesday....if i do not develop an allergy again...

Might be a treatment there for those worrisome warts also.

**Panda** · 04-10-2009, 04:24 PM

I have also heard snakebite is good for malaria.
Maybe something to keep in mind if you ever develop malaria?

**Nawty** · 04-10-2009, 04:27 PM

Possibly, dont know if the bee will fit up there though, its a tight squeeze.

I did not think this up by myself, nope, its not just my idle, yet highly creative mind thinking this, I have heard of one other guy doing it.

Soon as I stung myself, i could feel the poison surging through my body....well maybe not surging, kinda like just sitting and hurting.

I feel good.

Bee venom therapy is claimed to be of use in arthritis, bursitis, tendinitis, dissolving scar tissue (e.g. keloids), and Herpes zoster, among other illnesses. Apitherapy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

**Nawty** · 04-10-2009, 04:40 PM

I got some scar tissue, but i not putting a bee there.

Tendonitis so it might help.

Herpes on your lips and give it a sting......so thats what Angelina Jolly does.

lets see how it goes for a month.

**PlanK** · 04-10-2009, 04:41 PM

Does it cure hives?

**Stinky** · 04-10-2009, 04:44 PM

Do you have a defibulator? Just a thought

**slackula** · 04-10-2009, 06:16 PM

This thread has potential.

**blackgang** · 04-10-2009, 06:44 PM

It seems to be uised for some things, but I have an alergy to the bee venom so I am supposed to carry an ANA kit with hypo and some pills to take and get to a hospital in a few minutes as possible.
Last time I was stung I was close to an ER, so they did get it stopped as my throat was closing, and I did develope a severe case of Hives,, damn.

Sounds painful.

For a more potent venture, try self-induced wasps or hornets stings on your next occasion - as most species can sting multiply in a single session.

Where's Jet. No opinion on this? Is it a threat to her medical monopoly?

Nawts the only real "flying doc" around here

**Nawty** · 05-10-2009, 09:03 AM

Elbow has swelled up nicely....enough to last till wednesday i think and keep the flow in the area happnin.

I was thinking to do 3 injections....I prefer the word 'invenimations'...on wednesday at once, just to see what happens....but in the name of medical research, must be patient and stay on track......but the urges..

**withnallstoke** · 05-10-2009, 09:49 AM

If the inducement of pain to oneself has any relevence in your "treatments", may i suggest a hot wok applied briskly at the rate of 60 strokes a minute to the bare arse cheeks. It might quarterize piles.

**Nawty** · 05-10-2009, 10:02 AM

Thats 1 a second.....doubt I could reach that rate.

**withnallstoke** · 05-10-2009, 10:05 AM

^ Two hot woks. One in each hand. Begin in 20 second bursts until you have the coordination, balance, and stamina sorted out.

**Nawty** · 08-10-2009, 09:19 AM

Had another invenimation treatment yesterday.

1 sting from a bees bum.

Was itching to do a couple more, but no, must keep to the program.....but the desire is getting stronger.....no must not....but I want to.....

I am wondering if BeeBumJooce is addictive.....I cannot stop thinking about the next hit, day and night.....I am craving several hits at a time now.

Then there is the cost effect to consider......addiction could cause economic upheavel.....a group of about 1500 bees cost 2500b, so if i was taking 10 a day, well, it would soon effect the hive population and might have to drive around dark streets to find another score.....1500 bees please.....all wrapped in foil....no i am hollusinating now, getting ridiculous.....need a hit to settle down.

Next treatment is saturday, if 1 single hit does not satisfy me this time, i will do 2 on sunday.

I have another plan....we have a certain plant which attracts dozens and dozens of small wild bees everyday to the flowers on it.

I am going to catch 10 at a time and put them in a small jar, then hold it upside down on the required area and let them all go at it and see if wild bees offer a superior edge over the domestic cousins......cuz.

**Nawty** · 08-10-2009, 09:20 AM

Wonder if you could dry bees and smoke em....

**beazalbob69** · 08-10-2009, 09:29 AM

While you are at it you could also use maggots to clean out rotting flesh from a bad wound.
They use leeches for something now also but for what escapes me at the moment? Something about blood clotting?
I have also heard about the bee sting therapy somewhere dont remember where.

Isnt there something about pissing on a jellyfish makes it happy or something like that

As noted earlier (by crippen, IIRC) bee venom therapy has quite a following - especially amongst arthritis patients.

BUT -BIG FUCKING BUT - here mate, some people are allergic to bee venom, and a mildly allergic reaction initially can get more severe on subsequent stings till you trigger a massive allergic reaction leading to anaphylactic shock and likely DEATH.

So, maybe be careful there?
