Allergist...follow up

Today I am going to the allergist for a follow up. I'm hoping this will go better than the last visit. I have some issues, (when do I not) to go over with him. I'm coming off my prednisone so my delusional world of bliss will soon be coming to an end when my eczema comes back full force. It's creeping back today and I stopped taking it two days ago.

My list if questions:

Xyzal - may I try some, what are the side affects, and does it really work. It's supposed to reduce the itch.

Prednisone - I have been on it 3 times this year. Does it cause my eczema to get worse when the next flare comes? He will probably say no..cause he's a doctor loving prednisone prescriber. 

Allergies - He doesn't believe I can have as many chemical allergies as I do. BUT I had the test done which tells people if they have allergies so how is the test wrong?!? We need to go over this again.

Shots - He doesn't think allergy shots will have any positive affect on me. That's awesome. What the hell are they for then? I am severely allergic to dust mites and there's a shot for it so why shouldn't I be getting them?    * Insert exhaustion and frustration right here

Air purifier - will this help? Not that I obviously value his opinion that much. I would rather read other people's blogs and hear their opinions. But it is a question so will see what he says.

So those are the topics for the day. We almost moved out of our place because the one next door has no carpet, and I suspect mold in our place. It would be nice to move but not yet...
