My son was tested to be allergic to bees but shows no symptoms anymore. when is best to test him? on a day he is stung before meds or just test him when he has nothing in his systom?

No meds: He may be retested at your allergist's office. Inquire about their protocol prior to testing. Your son's reaction was specifically in response to a specific type of bee venom, and your allergist may provide additional test specific guidance.
