Yesterday I stopped by Walmart to pick up more Benadryl and allergy meds for me.. Needless to say, I left with nothing! The shelves were bare! They had a few odds and ends but nothing that I wanted and as far as Children's Benadryl it was completly gone..

Today she is doing rather well. I scrubbed my apartment yesterday.. Hoping to control everything. Mopped floors, washed walls, Washed every blanket and pillow, I was busy! But I think it helped

Needless to say, I truly feel bad for animals and people who struggle with allergies. It's awful!

Hopefully this will pass soon!
Have you thought about trying Claritin or Zyrtec? Those are 1x day meds, which is nice. Benadryl has to be given about 3x a day. I have info for dosing both, directly from a cheat sheet my Derm hands out. PM me if you want dosing. I don't always feel right about sharing dosing, but I almost always do when it comes to anti-histamines.

Not sure how others feel about me doing this, but chime in if people want to share thoughts about this . If people really want it posted permanently, I'd be willing to add it to the allergy thread in the Library. If too many are against this, then I'd probably continue my current route.

Edited: if you do go to that Derm - see Dr. Lewis if he does travel to that office; he travels to many of his offices. He is fab!}
