Will Wasp Sting Cause Low Blood Sugar?

Yesterday I was stung by a wasp a few hours later my arm was swollen and I hand a reactionlike my blood sugar was very low? I have no memory for about two hours. My family gave me orange juice and I came around in about half an hour. Would the wasp sting bring this on. Can come up with no other answer.

Hello,
The reaction you had was a severe anaphylactic reaction to wasp sting and such type of reactions lead to sudden feeling of weakness,collapse and unconsciousness.It was an anaphylactic reaction and not low sugar levels.
It is not an unusual reaction to wasp sting and does happen some times.
Thanks
