I do immune therapy and it is very time consuming. I have been on it for almost 4 years and have to go religiously for shots. It also does not work right away. When I first started I was on multiple medications to help with my allergies.
It wasn't until I was on the shots for 2.5 years that my doctor said I could get a cat or dog.
I also take a steroid inhaler for asthma as I get a terrible cough that lasts over a month without the medication. I don't have any issues with an inhaler I know many people on them with no adverse effects.
I would suggest going to see an Allergist and discussing your concerns. If you do happen to get tested for Allergy Shots you need to be off all Anti-Histamines for a week. No one told me that when I went to the doctor the first time.
Good Luck. |
