Has anyone used allergy drops or had allergy shots (immunotherapy)? I just went to a new allergist and they use allergy drops instead of the shots. You put 3 drops under your tongue each day to deliver whatever allergen or combo. of allergens you're allergic to into your body.
I have been allergic to cats and dogs for the past 15 years or so, but I love animals and would really like a cat, so I'm interested in trying the drops. I've used singulair, allegra, advair, nasonex, flonase, zyrtec, albuterol and probably a few other meds over the years while I grew up with cats in the house. None of them really worked all that well. They helped, but not enough.
I found out I am also mildly allergic to ragweed, dust mites, some type of yeast and a few types of mold according to their skin test. I'll find out my food allergy results (from a blood test) in 2 weeks.
Anyone try immunotherapy? Did it affect your UC at all?
