For what it's worth, the answer to all three questions is maybe.
Interestingly enough, in my pre-wegs life, I had seasonal allergies to grasses, especially goldenrod and ragweed. I was also allergic to animal dander, especially dogs and horses. My reaction to allergens was similar to yours. Once I was diagnosed, my pulmonologist suggested that I take a 10 mg loratidiene tablet and two 10 mg phenylephrine tabs daily. I take a phenylephrine at breakfast and supper. This was to keep my sinuses dry and free of inflammation. The result is that I haven't had hay fever nor any reaction to my son's dog in years.
i haven't seen any progress reports on your weight loss. At last report, you were minus 80. Hope all is well on that front.
