We do love our little Yappers but for people with allergies, living with them can be hard.<\/p><\/div>\n

We do love our little Yappers but let’s face it-when you suffer from allergies, like I do, they can be a major trigger and make my life a total misery for some. YapTalk wants pet parents to enjoy a great relationship with their little dog and allergies should not stand in the way of that. In part 1 of this series of posts<\/a>, I wrote about how\u00a0recently, my allergies got so out of control, that I had to seek the medical attention of an allergist\u00a0to.<\/p>\n

What are\u00a0allergists and what do they do?<\/strong><\/p>\n

An allergist is a medical doctor who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of allergies, asthma and bronchitis.\u00a0Many people with untreated allergic symptoms aren’t aware of how much better they can feel once their symptoms are properly diagnosed and managed by an allergist.<\/p>\n

What to expect during your first visit<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first visit will probably be the allergist\u00a0“interviewing” you about your symptoms and past allergy history. They will give you a quick physical\u00a0assesment that will include weight, blood pressure and a look in your nasal passages and throat. Once they gather that information they will sit down with you and discuss a course of treatment. Expect your doctor to be very thorough with the questions. It might be a good idea to think about your present and past allergy symptoms and be prepared to discuss them in detail with the doctor.<\/p>\n
