Normally, five to fifteen stings are applied on appropriate nerve meridians three times per week. First treatments may not produce much swelling, but further ones will. Extensive swelling, heat and itching are to be encouraged. The main precaution is not to try to administer more bee stings than the body can handle. Continue treatment for at least six months to ensure giving the therapy a chance to work.
All cases respond differently.
The only way to find out if this kind of therapy works is to try it. When symptoms are no longer present, treatment can be discontinued. Treatment can be resumed at any time. There is much to gain and little to lose trying bee venom therapy for MS, lupus erythematosus and scleroderma, as well as the vast family of rheumatic diseases. Bees for treatment should be placed in a small jar with a tablespoon of honey, preferably crystallized or in comb so that they don't become mired.
