Brief Answer:
Rush to ER to get antihistamine and steroid shots.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your queries.
Since you are getting dizziness, shortness of breath and fatigue, particularly after accidental injection of bee venom, you need to rush to ER or nearby Hospital for antihistamine and steroid shots as the condition can worsen anytime.
Please rush to ER.
For incontinence and frequency of urination, you should get proper investigations to find the cause so that a specific treatment can be done.
I hope you must have consulted an Urologist. Take second opinion of a Neurologist if the diagnosis is suggestive of neurological cause. Finding a proper cause is the mainstay of treatment of any disease.

I hope this answers your queries.

Brief Answer:
As detailed

Detailed Answer:
You may need to continue steroids in tapering doses.
Antihistamines can sometimes cause giddiness, fatigue as inherent side effects.
Short of breath can be due to effect of bee venom or can have other causes like hypo-tension or so and may need proper clinical evaluation to find out or rule out other causes and treated accordingly. It can be bronchospasm/asthma.
Please get these done, continue steroids as would be advised by your Doctor on examination.
Please give feedback.
With Regards.
