I have had adult onset allergies too. After testing I was told that I'm severely allergic to grass, trees, ragweed, alfalfa, weeds, dust, mold (even mold type food cause problems like cheese, mushrooms), cats, dogs, alternaria, penicillium, etc. Along with medication allergies like morphine, demerol, darvocet, vikadon, ultram, tramadol, sulfates and sulfa. Still waiting for food allergy testing but not sure if I really want to know.

I had allergy shots twice a week. Loved how much they help but so inconvenient for me with work and home life. I know take Nasacort AQ and Singulair daily - not as effective as the shots but it does help.

My insurance covered the shots. I had to pay my co-pay for the office visit each time.
