    An allergy clinic can run these tests for you. Been doing immunotherapy for allergies for 3 years and it is a complete game changer. Last year was the first year I could breathe th…

    Same for me. Though I started weightlifting 3x a week to combat any potential muscle loss. I cycle frequently and the impact of the weight loss and added strength has made me feel …
