Has anyone had these. I have seasonal allergies and allergies to dust mites, cats and dogs. I have started on allergy shots. It cost me 460.00 but my insurance paid 90% of it. I have been oging for injections weekly one shot in both arms. I had these done before about 15 years ago and they did not work for me. At that time it was only 1 shot in one arm.
I asked why they give 2 shots now and they said they found out that the mites don`t get along with the trees ok whatever.
If you had these done did they work for you or am I just wasting my time and money once again. I`ve been doing th shots for 4 months now and don`t see a difference. The allergist says the shots have improved greatly die to new technology. I`m nbot so sure I believe him I think he is just interested in making $$$$$$.
Yes they work. My youngest son has been getting them for almost 10 years (he's now 14) and he's much better. I started them when I quit smoking and developed a bunch of allergies in the early 90s. Prior to that I was allergic only to cats.
I'm currently in my 27th month of weekly shots and just recently started noticing that they are helping. I think 4 months is too soon to tell for you. Every time the serum runs out, they have to mix new serum and they charge my insurance $650, so you'll probably have ongoing charges. I'm still taking just as much other allergy medicine as before the shots, which disappoints me because I was hoping to reduce the medications by now. My allergist won't give me another skin test for another year because she predicts it will take me three years to see a substantial difference.

Did you ask if you can have some of whatever they're smoking?
Probably missing some context, just their answer doesn't make much sense--i see a connection from your allergy being partly caused by dust mites... but not getting along with trees??

The nurses there are pretty ditsy. I think she meant dust mites don't get along with pollen.
