Allergy Test

小貓 went for an allergy test this past week...to see what exactly is it that she was allergic to...

End up...the allergic cause is mainly "grass"...not "grass" itself...but the "grass season"...that means from March to September every year...小貓's body became really allergic...and it reacts to anything and not just grass...no matter it's dust...cat hair...paper...and even just change in temperature (indoor vs. outdoor)...anything and everything can cause her to sneeze and have stuffy nose and fever and itchy eyes and itchy throat...OMG!!!!!

So what's next?? Bad news...for a better hope of curing the allergy once and for all...the is no better option than to have allergy shots...once every week for the first 5 months...then once every month for the next 7 months...total of 1 year...see if it helps...

Sigh...but the good thing is...at least we know what causes it...at least we know...after September...小貓 should be better until next spring...and at least we know...cat and cat hair are not the major irritants... =)

In the picture...it shows how the doc tested 小貓...the doc marked her arm into a grid...then used different irritants to test the severity!!!!!

See the bumps??? They itch up in less than 5 seconds after the doc put on the irritant drops!!!! Allergy can be fatal!! The doc said...for a specialist like him...allergy irritant drops can be used to kill like a weapon!!! How scary!!!
