Something is wrong – think she may have been stung earlier – but there is no huge swelling- last time she was stung like that her whole face swelled up- have given piriton just in case.

just looked at her, half her lip is swollen, temp is fine, gums fine, she doing her quiet whining – she only does it when not well. she not moving, everytime I lift her head it very heavy – like she been under a GA

ok…well if she def didnt eat it and there is no a dead bee then it likely it wasp/hornet and it stung and flew off….up to the eye prob swelling due to the toxins going up…it a bit late but neutralise site anyway with vinegar and then apply an ice pack to lip and side of face….you could give her some st j w for the pain….and then it keep and eye and do ops every half hour…if she was going to go into toxic shock she would have by now…she prob dopey with the shock of the pain…hornet stings in particular are real painful….

give her a hug from me…..

that maybe a kinins reaction…it is a peptide in the venom and can cause contractions of the muscles and a lowering of blood pressure…..you got any electrolytes?

Nope

Her heart beat isnt right either – missing every other beat – normally misses every 4th beat
