I haven't been stung, but everything I've read said it was like a bee sting. Of course if you have an allergic reaction it could be bad.

If you can resist the temptation, just don't handle him at all. Scorpions only get stressed when handled, and they really dislike the light. Emperor scorpions have very large and powerful pedipalps, therefore their venom is less potent because they have no need for such strong toxins when the pedipalps get the job done. They don't really bite, they pinch, and pinch they will if they feel threatened. Jay's right, if you are allergic to bee stings, a sting from an emp would probably kill you if you didn't get help soon enough.

I have a large emp atm. Tamer than ever. But I plan on getting 2-3 females to breed. I am not sure if they will be tame or not. So if you are allergic to a bee, what exactly happens to you when you are stung by a emp? Also are you given the same products used for bee stings. Or mainly for certain scorps? Main reason I am asking this is because in my 18 years of living I have never been stung by a bee, don't know if I'm allergic or not, and wondering if I get stung by a emp and for some reason I am allergic. Will I die because hospitals do not have a treatment for me?

I believe it's anaphalactic shock that is the most common reaction to this type of sting, it is treated with adrenalin (which all hospitals have). But as always do alot of research before breeding.
