sooo tired asked:


I have severe allergies but I can’t tell…I have been take my allergy meds and they are not helping. I have also been taking OTC meds like Zyrtec and Claritin. I have also been taking Nyquil/Dayquil and that seems to be doing the trick. How can you tell the difference?

How does desensitization therapy and allergy shots work for people with allergies?

Allergies
noomi asked:


I have allergies all year round! Now allergy shots…the goal is to give gradual exposure so that the body can “get use to it” and become desensitized. It’s supposed to make the body react less to the allergens. But why haven’t the body “gotten use” to the allergens after years of exposure and symptoms already? Claritin and Zyrtec isn’t working…even with a combo usage of Sudafed. Help!?

Confused asked:


A family member of mine is allergic to short haired dogs. I like a certain breed, but it happends to be short haired. I have been looking at this breed for several years now. I really don’t like the longhaired breeds. I looked and I am pretty stuck on this breed. Can we get rid of these allergies for good?
