I have had similar issues in the past with my little Paris. I adopted her at almost 2 years old, and seemed healthy until about six months later. For a year we were going to the vet every couple months for some problem. I even changed vets over this. Luckily, she has been healthy for almost six months now and I'm keeping my fingers crossed. This is what I am doing about her skin (itchiness) issues. We use a special shampoo that I purchase from 800Petmeds called NuSal T. I hate using chemicals, but this is the only thing that has kept her rash free. Also, she eats Natural Balance Duck and potato allergy formula food. Unlike most other foods, it has a single source for protein and a single source for carbs. I'm super carefull that she doesn't get any treats containing ingredients she could be allergic to. As for her reverse sneezing, I just try to calm her down when it happens by saying in a soothing voice "calm down, relax, it's ok", and this usually works because it often happens when she's too excited. Hope it helps to at least know you're not alone, and it can get better.
