How do you know if you are allergic to bee stings if you have not been stung?

You could be allergy tested by a physician, which would likely include testing for bee or wasp venom. Otherwise, until you are stung you won't know whether or not you are allergic.
The good news is, Allergies tend to worsen with repeated exposure, so the first sting is not likely to cause anaphylactic shock.

What happens if someone is allergic to bee stings?
The question should be how do you know if you're allergic to ANYTHING? Your immune system can only react (hyper-react in the case of allergy) to something after it's been exposed to it. So the answer for your question is you don't know what you're allergic to until you are exposed to it, in your case, it's after you got stung by a bee.
How many times can a bee sting you before you die?
Everyone's tolerance for bee stings is different. Some people are allergic from birth and some aren't. Think of it like this:Your body has a certain amount of immunity to the stings, some people have none and others have a lot. So to say 10 stings will kill you may not be right for person A with a high tolerance but can certainly hurt person B that's highly allergic.So if you were to be continually stung and lived forever then you'd eventually become allergic to the stings.So there's no real number answer for you. It varies too greatly since we're all different.

How do you know if you got stung by a bee or wasp?
If it's a bee, the stinger is barbed and thus will usually remain in the victim, so you'll rarely see more than one sting per bee. Wasp stings are generally less powerful, and the stingers are smooth, so they can retract without losing the stinger. Thus multiple stings are possible.
