I'm all confused David, so, if after 5 year and you still get a bad reaction to the treatment let alone a sting, what exactly does the therapy do? I don't get...
... nice to dream Robin :-) ... ahhh, so you get protection (from a sting) while you are on the therapy? so during those 8 weeks you'll be ok, but if you go...
I don't get a bad reaction the the immunotherapy and haven't done for many years. I don't enjoy the injections but I can cope with that. The real pain is now...

Hello to you and welcome. I see the David has already responded with his most excellent words of wisdom. I'm not one with an allergic child but I became very...
