Gracie is off the steroids, her skin looks really good, and all she gets is an allergy shot once a week. It takes about four months of shots before you start seeing the results but can take as long as a year. I am so glad we went to the specialist. And Gracie is not itchy anymore. I highly recommend an allergy specialist.
If anyone has any further questions, please feel free to ask me, as I wish I had someone to ask when we were going through all this. I will be glad to answer any questions I can.

THANK YOU TO MY GOOD Friend Jamie !! You are always ready to help and I know you've had so much experience with Allergies that you could give Chachi some excellent answers -

I can testify to how much love and care you've given Gracie (both your cute girls) and how great she looks - Because I've been lucky enough to meet you in person....

One would never know she has such bad allergies right now... and I know it was a long haul for you to get to this point.....Thanks so much for coming on here and posting girl !!!
