Fibro Friday: Allergies

Wow, so I haven't done a Fibro Friday in forever.  It just seems as though you go from one flare-up to another.  And I am in a big one now, and just feel horrible (on Tuesday I didn't get out of bed until 1:15 pm).  There are times where I feel like I am getting sick and then boom, a flare-up starts.  Lately, I have been wondering if I am getting sick or is it allergies.  

I have never officially been diagnosed with allergies... until today!  Last week we were at the allergist for our oldest.  And by asking him a few questions, it really made me wonder if all these years I have also been suffering from allergies.  I went to the family doc today and he confirmed it so far.. YES I am suffering from allergies.  And YES allergies and infections can bring on a flare-up.  (I always knew that infections could, but just never thought about allergies.)

The doc gave me some meds to start taking to see if I can get it under control, but I am definitely going to follow up with the allergist.  Just think, it's been 9 years since I was diagnosed at I have probably had allergies all this time and never knew it!
