But after three years of getting allergy shots i am no longer allergic. I no longer require allergy shots whatsoever and i have been off of the treatment for two years now. Am i still able to join the air force if i provide all my medical documentation?

I don’t know if it’s just a bad reaction or if the shots are getting in nerves or muscles. I don’t know if that’s even possible.

I’ve heard people say that their pet allergies “went away” after living with a new pet or something, but mine have never done this.
So in a nutshell, why does injecting an allergen through allergy shots help with immunity, while having other types of exposure to allergens make symptoms worse? You’d think if I’m constantly exposed to dust mites, then it’d build up an immunity. I’ve read all kinds of stuff, but I don’t seem to be able to find an answer.

She is OK during work days but on weekends when she is home all day, she is constantly sneezing and sniffing. She does take prescription Allegra for allergies and we have an air purifier in the bedroom which helps some, but does anybody have experience with allergy shots? How often do you go? How much does it cost? How effective are they? Thanks everyone….I thought about getting her to try Zyrtec next, any other pills work for you?
