My boss is allergic to a number of different things and he is going weekly to get a shot to help overcome it. I get it sometimes myself, but it's very rare. Only certain things set it off for me and most of the time I'm able to avoid them.
I tried the prescription drugs during my worst years, but they were as bad as the allergies themselves, leaving me drowsy and impaired. Have the drug companies overcome those side effects yet?
