> A couple of weeks ago, I was stung by both a bee and hornet while working in the garden.
>
> My arm swelled up, so I went to the doctor. The clinic gave me cream and an
> antihistamine. The next day the swelling was getting progressively worse, so I
> went to my regular doctor. The arm was Infected and needed an
> antibiotic.The doctor told me - ' The next time you get stung, put a penny on
> the bite for 15 minutes'.< BR>
> That night, my niece was stung by two bees. I lookd at the bite and it had already
> started to swell. So, I taped a penny to her arm for 15 minutes. The next morning,
> there was no sign of a bite. We decided that she just wasn't allergic to the
> sting.
>
> Soon, I was gardening outside. I got stung again,
> twice by a hornet on my left hand. I thought, here I go again to the
> doctor for another antibiotic.
>
> I promptly got my money out and taped two pennies to my bites, then sat
> and sulked for 15 minutes. The penny took the string out of the bite immediately.
>
> In the meantime the hornets were attacking, and my friend was stung on the thumb.
> Again the penny. The next morning I could only see the spot where the hornet had
> stung me. No redness, no swelling. My friend's sting was the same; couldn't even tell
> where she had been stung.
>
> She got stung again a few days later upon her back---cutting the grass!
> And the penny worked once again.
>
> Wanted to share this marvelous information in case you experience the
> same problem. We need to keep a stock of pennies on hand .
>
> The doctor said that the copper in the penny counteracts the bite. It definitely works!
>
> Please remember and pass this information on to your friends, children,
> grandchildren, etc.
