A friend of mine says she is allergic to
dogs. She says her eyes swell if she pets
a dog and then touches her eyes. Can this
be true?

Swelling Is Common Posted: 09-10-03 11:17am
I have an allergy to dogs. Sometimes it
is so bad that my eyes swell shut.
Bathing them with a cool face cloth and
taking some benedryl usually helps. It is
quite common to have animal allergies.
I am
allergic to cats I
can't get ten feet away and look at one.I
don't have to touch my eye to swell up and
cough.Even if a cat has been laying on
something even if it's not been on it for
a few day's I can still smell it.I
recommened advair or vertex I think it's
called.
