Self medicate

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...

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

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.

Apitherapy

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

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.

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.

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.

Self medicate??

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.

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