    Avocados were always the worst. Which I hated because I love guacamole. How old are you? Because my worst issues were during puberty through my 20s, I truly feel testosterone was the combatant. But it was never serious enough to go to a doctor for an actual diagnosis.

    Allergies suck. One of the massive benefits of living in Florida is that I don't have them here. Used to have pretty bad spring allergies in Europe.

    Yeah, I don't know what it was but when I was living in Houston, I had some allergies as well (although not as bad as in Europe). Only did a prick test to determine what I was allergic to a couple of years ago, and...it was a lot of stuff. February to June, basically the whole time. Desloratadine would help a bit, but sometimes, it could get really bad.

    For the last 10 days my son has been getting wrecked with the pollen only at night. Eyes get swollen, itchy, and red.

    Immunotherapy works. If your insurance pays for it, you should start your son. Takes about five years but makes a big difference. I wish it was around when I was a kid; I probably missed 20% of school days due to allergies living in BFE pollen factory...come to think of it, those were good days besides being wrecked like your kid.
