Thanks baby, good article. I have some allergies and normally use benadryl when they act up. Also I do immunotherapy which has been a God send.
How do you do immunotherapy?Quote:

Have been to about 6 different specialists and not one could figure out why this itch hits me like that. Took a big allergy test. Nada. Nothing. No allergies. Its the damndest thing but have learned to live with it. When I go on a trip, I gotta take ziplock bags so I can pack my arms in ice at night if they start itching.
