A bit of common sense goes a long way. When going to get your weekly allergy shot wear a sweater that you can roll the sleeves up on. Today I made the mistake of wearing the worlds’ tightest sweater. It is new and has neat stitching which makes for a no-stretch situation. So as I walk in to get my shot I panic and try desperately to get either sleeve up over my bicep. Not happening. So my kind allergy shot deliverer rolls down the blinds and closes the door so I can wrangle the sweater off, my hair looking like it is part of an electricity experiment.
I have been getting weekly and twice weekly shots (one in each arm – cat allergies require their own arm) since April 2013. I was allergy tested at the end of March. I had been on Nasonex for a year before…
