3 days ago I was stung by a honey bee during a ride. Yesterday I had a pretty sizable area of redness surrounding the sting. Today the area was even bigger. I posted this photo on FB and an MD friend of mine suggested cellulitis. I hit the med center...and Mark's diagnosis was confirmed.


I had figured yesterday that I must be having a delayed allergic reaction, so this AM I scheduled allergy testing for next month (since I definitely have some seasonal allergies and possibly shrimp, as well). Glad I didn't give it another day to get diagnosis and antibiotics. Cellulitis can be deadly.
