How Can Severe Allergic Reaction To A Wasp Sting On The Face Be Treated?

I just got some kind of wasp or stinging bee sting me on my lip when weeding. The strangest thing, though, was my nose immediately started to bleed. I watched for whatever it was to come back out but it did not. The nest was in or close to the ground. My husband looked right away for a stinger, but did not see one. It immediately started to swell up. I took 1 Bennadrel (sp?), then soon after a second, and put an anti-sting fluid on. It s less than an hour later, and I look like a freak! Now will put an ice pack on it. About all I can do??
