I started Allergy Shots at the beginning of September 2011. I had switched insurance companies and found out that this option was covered :)
It was a big committment at first. I had to go to the allergist's office twice a week for 3-4 months and then I was able to drop down to once a week for about a month. It took awhile for me to build up to my maintenance dose because I had a lot of local reactions that were bigger than they liked to see.
At first I tried having all of the solution combined into one shot, but my reactions were too big so they had to divide them into two shots so that I could continue.
As of February, I only have to go in once a month for my shots. I can see a HUGE improvement with how I feel during this allergy season so at least the shots are helping with my environmental allergies!! Woot Woot!
