I have unbelievable chronic pain, I was given a book on bee venom. I started stinging myself early summer 08 and all my pain went away after about 3 days. I restung myself twice during the summer when the pain returned. Now it is winter, the pain is everywhere in my body and where can I find honey bees and why does this work?
