Question Author
tried to buy over the counter remedies at two pharmacies and both said nothing they could give without prescription would do a complete job - both considered it a GP jobbie as it was getting worse all the time. Outcome is an anti histimine and a course of antibiotics (plus the advice to keep piriton with me all the time as it was likely the next wasp sting would be as bad if not worse.) Anyway, just wanted to give you an update and thank you once again. Stay well
