The test can be expensive so if your gonna use the injections then i say go for it, if your not because you don't want to inject her with more things then i'd skip it.

There is a anti-histamine you can get from you vet called Hydroxyzine that usually has pretty good results. its non-steroidal.
I'll have to write that down and ask the vet about it... i feel SO torn... i hate seeing her like this... itchy and in pain.. i HATE what the Benedryl does to her (knocks her out) but then she isn't itching... but i dont' wat to put more stuff in her body.. so i am iffy about going to the vet for the shots.... because i honestly think i woudlnt' use them... ahhh i dont' know... i just want to make the BEST decision for her. but i don't know what that is....
