From the time I was 4 until I was 14, I recieved allergy shots.  This
started at the rate of 3 a week, and was tapered off to one a week by
the time I was 7, and then at 13 they began tapering them off even
futher.  At the outset I was allergic to all mammalian fur, (gawd, I can
still remember mom trying to explain why I couldn't have a
dog/cat/goat/horse/whatever...), most dusts, and had hay fever like you
wouldn't believe.  The shots cleared it up, and I haven't had a bit of 
trouble since.....
(I'm 25 now.)
