Description

Launched in September 2003, this group is concerned with reactions to insect stings from mild irritation to life threatening allergic reactions.

The Group is associated with the website
http://www.insectstings.co.uk which is run and mediated by me, David Glaser, and I am very allergic to stinging insects - or was until I started my course of venom immunotherapy. Please let us know your experiences on this board - but if you prefer you can still write to me privately on david@insectstings.co.uk .

Join our friendly and helpful group where you can teach others and learn about this extraordinary subject!!
