I, along with one of my children, tried allergy injections years ago. Didn't work.

The best thing I've found so far, and I've had allergies for a very long time...I'm old, is to have a combo shot of Decadron and Rocephen when the allergies start. That usually lasts through allergy season.

A relatively cheap treatment and you'll not be slave to the allergy specialist who'll keep you coming back again and again and again and again and again and again.

About 4k not covered by insurance and not guaranteed to work.

I just started getting them about a year ago and they work for me and are covered by insurance. Go once a week and am about 2 months from dropping down to twice a month.

I like hearing from different people about what works and doesn't for them, and I would really hate to go ahead and spend the money on the injections and end up no better off. Did you go through the full course of treatment? Doc said some people either get tired of it or don't think it's working so they give it up too early.

I guess I will find out what the allergist recommends for me in a couple weeks, and I'll be sure to ask about success rates and stuff. Thanks guys!
