Wasp Sting Legacy

About 15 years ago I was stung repeatedly on the inside of my upper arm by a wasp that had got caught up in my cardi. My arm swelled up massively and I had palpitations and dizziness afterwards so a bit of bad reaction.

Since then whenever I have an injection like flu or Covid or if I’m really stressed, the area where I got stung itches like mad for about a week. Antihistamines don’t make any difference.

Can someone who’s clever and knows about these things tell me why this is after so many years?

I’m sat here in work trying to discreetly repeatedly scratch my armpit musing about my wasp sting legacy
