Bummer

So I went in for allergy testing because I had 4 colds in the last 6 months. I knew I had allergies because I was on medication that just doesn't seem to work anymore. I got the poke tests and they said I reacted to nearly everything they tested me for. Especially trees and grasses...well this is just peachy because we live in the trees and grass! I said, "Please don't tell me horses and dogs, because there is no way they are going anywhere?" Well yep I am. This helped me make my decision to start on "The Cure" which is desensitization shots for about 5 years. They said it is only 80 percent that are cured but I thought it was worth a try.

So on March 12th I started my two shots, three times a week. The shots aren't the bad part, the drive is. I have to drive an hour round trip into Clackamas, after work, to go get poked. I am keeping my fingers crossed that I am one of the 80 percent...
