Have you ever gotten a shot in your arse?!?!
I did! *rolls eyes*
My allergist gave me a shot on my behind to control my horrible allergies.
He also took a lot of blood.
Oh yeah, and I took an allergy test to determine what I am allergic to.
Yea, I did not expect all of that! I just thought we would consult. LOL!
I love my doctor though, he’s very informative and he make sure that I understood everything.
I took the environmental allergy test. When I took the test before (with a different doctor) it was like a scratch test. This doctor actually injects you with the allergen to determine your reaction – more accurate testing.
I absolutely hate needles. Can you imagine getting poked 20+ times?!?! And then drawing crazy amounts of blood and getting a shot on your arse! All on the same visit!!!!! LOL!
The purpose of my visit was to determine the best way to deal with my allergies. I am also a eczema sufferer which is inextricably linked to my allergies.
I’m tired of nasal congestion, eczema, itchy, watery eyes, sneezing and the host of things. I want to be normal! *cries in hand*
So I am hopeful that my doctor will be able to get me on the path to dealing with my allergies.
I am not a big medication person so I am looking for more holistic ways to deal with my allergies. I know that some people get allergy shots – uhm, we’ll cross that bridge if need be.
On Monday, I will take the food allergy test. I am not looking forward to that. But I have told myself that I will take it serious this time and if I need to stop eating certain things . . . I will.
