Question by Mia L: What’s the best type of allergy relief?
I have severe allergies to cats and dogs and any animal with dander. I have tried all OTC allergy meds, and most prescription meds. When an allergry outbreak happens I get hives, swollen eyes, sneezing and have ended up in the ER more than 20 times with allergy related asthma attacks. I usually end up with some sort of bronchail infection, ear infections and sinus infections after prolonged contact. My doctor has been extremely understanding but insists all my serious issues are allergy related. I am a Vet Tech student and have an internship coming up. Any advice on what I should do to control the allergies? Quitting is not an option as I have put thousands of dollars into my education and have a passion for nothing else. Serious answers only please, as this is life threatening and life changing.

When I was living with my parents we had a lot of cats and 3 dogs my entire face would swell (eyes, lips and cheeks ect.) They put me on Zyrtec I took it every day and it really calmed it down. I still itched occasionally but my face stopped swelling up.
