My Oldest DD had an allergy test. She was allergic to almost everything! but Cat, dog and trees I think.

She went on three years of immuno therapy that was very helpful for her

I took my son in for that, but once he could drive i figured he would take himself. He chose not to go.

I dont kniw about where you are, but here everything is coated with yellow pollen. The bud sheaths are flying off the trees like snow in the air. It's crazy how allergic I have become.

We are in southern VA. Plum trees are blooming.

My DD did a similar thing. She was supposed to go in for 5 years because a new Allergist started and changed the program for her. It still helped though

The one that gets me here is black walnuts. They will start soon so I need to stock up on

Yes, my son could mow the lawn without his eyes swelling shut.

We have a chestnut tree right next to the house and black walnuts on the property.

The same here! When she did the strip test, the nurse did not give good instructions. When she came back she was shocked! Some of the reactions were the biggest she had seen and scolded me for not calling her back in!

After the years of therapy, She can now go out in the spring and summer without swollen eyes still and the immune therapy was 15 years ago now.

There is immune therapy for peanut allergy now too. It has proven to be successful too

Does this work better than Nasacort?

It is a generic version of flonase so it works like that one. I like it and it is currently $20.00 for that pack at costco.

Wow! One bottle of Flonase is almost that much. We dont have Costco here though, maybe Sam's has something like it.
