Its the left thumb but that's actually progressing quite well. The leg is now the size of a tree trunk.

Thankfully, I'm not allergic to the little b*stards (they still pick me out of a crowd), but my ex-wife was. We were traveling at the top of a mountain pass one time, and one flew into the cab of the truck and stung her in the neck. Nearest rural hospital was about 45 minutes away at the bottom of the valley. I made it in 30. But by then, her head was like a beach ball. After that, she kept an epi-pen in her purse at all times.

Hoping the best for you Norm.
I'm not clinically allergic to wasp stings, but I just swell up. No anaphylaxis reaction as in respiratory distress or hives.
Last wasp sting did sent me to the clinic after 2 days. Got stung in the eyelid region and eye swelled shut 2 days later

Right leg is a freakin club.

After a Baker Cyst rupture in the right knee, my lower leg resembled yours. The kanckle would not go down after 2 months. I finally tried Lymphatic Enhancement Therapy (LET) with massage. 2 sessions and my leg swelling went away and the knee finally started healing. Best $200 I've spent in a long time.

Saw the doc yesterday morning because now my foot and ankle have all these raw blisters, that's a new one as that never happened the last few times.

Just when the whole thumb issue was taken care of now this. Besides the usual after sting meds now I gotta take antibiotics four times a day. My foot's a mess now my stomach's a mess, wtf is next?!

Rant over.

Saw the doc yesterday

Damn man . Hope he's got you heading in the right direction . I was washing the house today and found a huge wasp nest at the top of the gable . Grabbed the extendable pole and started to knock it down . Remembered this thread , and just left it alone for now . I've never been allergic to a sting , but wasn't willing to find out if things have changed .
