When I was in high school, I had become accustomed to the fact that I had a good collection of allergy problems. I was well aware of the fact that cats, dogs, and pollen would wreak havoc on my nasal and eye allergies, but I simply figured that I could live with the discomfort.
After a trip to the emergency room, however, I decided that it would be best to get an allergy test. As it turns out, I was allergic to far more than pet dander and a few types of pollen. This test really opened my eyes to the number of things that were effecting my well-being. It is certainly something I’m glad I took the time to do.
