Now I have a prednisone pack with me. Prednisone is what they give you in the hospital when you are about to die from a bee sting. It can have some rather nasty side effects but you only take it for 5 days or so. .
That is a good idea. I always have a stash of predinsone in case I have an arthritis flareup. What kind of doses are you looking at with your predinsone pack? Is it the kind where the first day's dose is 25mg, then decrease by 5 mg a day?

yes it is. like 5 tabs the first day 4 the next and so on till you are down to one on the last day. It comes in a nice convenient package and does not weigh much at all. It means if I get stung I dont even have to go to the hospital.
