can these allergies last this long?!
Question: Can these allergies last this long?
I have always been allergic to cats, i usually get just the typical scratchy throat, runny and stuffy nose, itchy eyes and skin. Three days ago i went to my friends house and she has a cat, I didn't even touch her cat at all but i was for around 5 hours and only half an hour in i started getting a scratchy throat. But once i left i had a runny and stuffed nose and itchy eyes. Usually i only stay this way for a day, but ive had it for three days. Can allergies act up for this long? :S
Answers:
Yes they can. I'm a cat lover, have always had cats around me, and have always had constant symptoms similar to yours. It wasn't until I stopped having cats near me that my hay fever stopped, although it was about two weeks before there was some real improvement in my health.
