Bee stings do they help?

I know that for some ailments like MS that they use bee stings (venom) as a treatment but a few years back I got stung 2 separate times, accidently got near their nest, got stung 1-2 times each time and noticed something for the 2-3 weeks afterward I felt better than I had in a long time, had more energy, this ever happened to anyone else?
