What Causes Breathlessness After A Bee Sting?

My daughter was stung by a bee a week ago. She had a momentary lack of breathing and swallowing. The stinger was pulled out by another student. Then she said she felt okay. Slight swelling and redness that went right away. Now after one week later, she is still complaining of shortness of breath. Is this from the bee sting?
