I talked to the allergist

He agreed with my stopping the Nasonex and just continuing with Allegra for now. I also told him that although the allergies were getting better there were times that even with the drugs in effect that stuff still hit me. He felt that my 3rd shot has so much random stuff in it that I’m probably not getting the full amount I need so he’s going to reformulate it into two shots bringing the total up to four. I haven’t seen anyone else get four shots, only three or fewer.

I also mentioned that when I exercise that in the first 15 minutes I feel asthma starting but then it goes away. He told me that most exercise induced asthma follows one of two patterns. Either you get it in the first 10-15 minutes and can work through it (or not), or you get it when you are done exercising. I get both of those so he told me to get an air-flow measurement tool so I can track it for awhile and report back to him and we can go from there.
