On a ride one of our riders swallowed a bee or wasp, and got stung in his month. Being allergic to their sting, he swelled up and had difficulty breathing. We phone the paramedics and they gave him epinephrine intravenously. I guess this paramedic wasn’t too good at inserting the needle, hence the grimace of Denis. He was admitted to the hospital as for observations as he was still having a hard time breathing. He was release later that evening and is doing fine.
He usually carries his Epipen, but it was in his other bag. He vows to be make sure next time to have it with him.
