My Kaiser allergy DR. doesn't know anything about allergies.
I've been going to her for the last 6 months.
Next monday I get a CT scan of my head to see is I have a sinus infection.
I'm having all sorts of bad things happen to my body.
I have Brain fog, bad skin, eye floater, etc etc etc.
But now i'm having yeast problems? my tongue is all white. now I have jock itch, and athletes foot????
I have allergies to thing I work around, but I never really knew it, I never had the runny nose, or itchy eyes, I just feel light headed 24/7.
My allergy tests were off the charts, I was +4( I guess thats the highest) with Grass, Mold, Dust mites, rag weed. and I had other minor allergies to my pets, and what not.
I guess when ever I Google allergies, it just talks about runny noses, and itchy eye's???? I dont have any of that. and I've had bad allergies for over 10 years untreated.

Have you not tried an antihistamine? Plenty of options OTC - claritin, zyrtec. Are you going to take allergy injections?

Hey there, I went to an allergist a few years ago and was told that I was not allergic to dust, which I did not believe because as soon as I come into contact with dust, it affects me. However, dust continued to plague me.
Last week I had a food allergy test and they also tested me for inhalants and I was allergic to both dust (3) and dust mites (4+) as well as dogs (4++), cats (4++) and some grasses (3s). I start allergy shots next week for dust, dust mites, dogs and cats. I don't have pets but there are some in my building.
My feelings are light-headedness, brian fog, problems sleeping and going into certain malls is just a killer, like I am in another world, disconnected feelings. And when I sneeze, I bring the house down.

Yes, I'm taking a antihistamine once a day, and a nose spray. I start shots next week.

Some days more so than before. I just feel spacy when it happens. Also, I needed glasses 2 years ago because the doctor said that I was nearsighted. Not sure if allergies were the culprit.
Good luck with your shots too. We will both get some relief.

Has your allergies also affected your digestive system with post nasal drip and such? Nausea some days?
By the way, my allergy shots will not begin until the week of February 2 because the potion is not ready.

I wish SOME doctor would have told me that! I freaked out when I saw my first floater. And I notice now that when I am really foggy, I seem to notice those stupid things more.
Floaters= most annoying things ever. They can also be a clear looking spot, black spot, line, translucent. They pretty much move with your vision, so if you are at a computer all day, ugh... its so annoying! :(

The shots are for allergies.
The DR. does the pick test and finds out what you have allergies to, then treats them. Some times if they're bad enough, the DR will treat you with allergy shots. If not, then meds.
I hope they'll help me.

I got mine today.. I was there forever.. I had to get something incase I had a reaction to the shots.
But the DR. started me on Singulair too.. I had kind of a funny reaction to it. I felt even more light headed, and really spaced out. But O-well, I'm fine now.
I was happy to feel no pain with the shots. I couldn't believe how small the needle was. :o
I only only go 1 time a week, for the next 20 weeks, then every other week.
I kinda sucks because the DR is a hour away from my house. :mad:

He there,
Glad that you got started.
It is normal to feel affects in that, as you know, the injections contains the allergens (cat, dog, dust, dust mite, feathers, mold, grasses, trees) that we are trying to avoid and they give you a little more each time. I started week 2 yesterday and will go back to tomorrow. Mon & Wed of each week for the first 6 weeks.
I am blessed to have my doctor to be only 12 miles away from work. So it's take about 10 minutes to get. However, I have to wait 20 minutes after each shot to see how it affects me. Once I get to monthly, I will only have to wait 5 minutes.
I know that it's soon, but I am feel just a LITTLE something in the positive direction. A mom at the clinic last week told me that I will be able to notice more of something positive after a month of the shots.
Keep in touch as you continue with your shots.
Do you have to pay a co-pay? My insurance company pays 100%.
Do you get 1 shot in each arm? I get one in both arms each time.
Take care,
Aarondawg

Stuffy head, nasal congestion, post nasal drip that upsets my stomach, dizzy\foggy, off balance, plugged ears, irritable (like PMS) and fatigue.
By the way, I had a huge reaction to yesterday's shot. My right ear started popping last night and my right jaw hurt. Similar to flying with a head cold. Feel better now though. I had to think, I am being injected with all of these things that my body hates. I know that is will get better as my body starts to produce defenses against them.
My next shots are Monday.

Are you taking allergy shots? I start my 3rd week of them today for dust, dust mites, dogs, cats, certain trees, grasses and mold. 2 shots per week for 6 weeks, then 1 shot per week for 6 weeks and so on.

Do you take an antihistamine the morning of your injections? That will help with the side effects.
And only 2 shots for 6 weeks? Lucky you - I had four a week ( 2 each 2 times a week) in the beginning and then at maintenance 2 per month for 5 years.

I know. I plan to continue mine because my mother suffered lots with allergies (sinuses) and I finally want some relief from mine. I am not as nauseated now but my stomach is still sort of out of sorts (bloated, crampy) but my allergies caused a lot it in the first place so I guess that since I am being injected with the allergens now, it's par for the course.
Let's stick the shots out together and hopefully you will be able to go to work soon.
How many shots are you getting per week. I am get them twice a week.

any 1 feel better from the shots?
I dont:mad:
I have just completed my 6 weeks of 2 a week and start once a week next week for 6 months.
I am starting feel a lot of subtle, positive changes....I can now go into to large stores like Target and not have a lot of issues, also my sleeping is better and I can now wake up and go back to sleep, my stomach is starting to feel better, my balance is better, I am not as crabby or irritable or depressed, and I no longer feel like I am in a fog all the time. One strange thing is that my tongue is no longer as covered with the white patches like it was before starting the shots. Also, I have been craving spicy foods and lobster and crab burgers. Maybe the lobster and crab stuff is the from the cat serum thank God for Capital Grille...LOL!
How long have you been getting the shots and how often? I get a shot in each arm. I hope that you start to see some relief soon. Remember that are subtle and building.
Note, they keep increasing the dosage each time and I sometimes feel the effects that day or the next day like running noses, sneeze or such. I am glad that I only have to do them 1 a week for a while now.
Regards,
Aaron

I actually stopped them! I only had 3 and I felt very dizzy like fainting all the time... It took me 2 weeks locked in the house to recover. Also my Ige levels were messed up and got my asthma back which means cortisone. Much better now, but it seems that the shots are not the best option for everybody!! I hope you feel better... I have decided to check out alternative treatments like yoga, homeopathy, energy therapies and see...

That is too bad. All people are different as well as I am sure that serum injection are different too. I do not suffer from asthma, rather environmental allergies.
I committed to sticking with the shots from Day 1 and knew that I would probably feel worse before feeling better. My friends have helped me through them and keep positive.
Good luck with your alternative treatments.

They kinda started me over on the shots.
After the 3rd time of going I had mild effects from the shots, The DR panicked and wanted me to start over with the lowest dose.
I asked her if I should feel a little worse because she is giving me shot of what I am allergic to. She said no. :confused: ( I have the worst allergy DR ever)
anyways Im going to stick it out, I'm just going to say anything about how I feel any more.
Good Luck, I'll check back in a month or so. :p:wave:
