Do You Have Allergies? Many patients assume they have allergies because they have the ”normal” symptoms, but have never been tested to identify what allergen, if any, could be causing the problem. All they know is that certain times of the year they get the typical allergy symptoms like runny nose, watery eyes and congestion, but there are lesser known symptoms they may not know about. Ailments like chronic sinus infections, strep throat, asthma, eye infections, nasal polyps, chronic ear infections and migraine headaches could also be signs of allergies. Even common skin ailments like hives and eczema are treated as chronic illnesses when they could be allergy driven. It your have any of these symptoms, ask you doctor today about the allergiMed™ program. Get relief you’ve been looking for. We Can Help!
