How do I get rid of the dark circles under my eyes?
Author: First off, a little information about me to hopefully help you help me. 
I'm a male, so no makeup to cover them up. I get over 9 hours of sleep a night. I work out 7 days a week and eat well. My stress level is moderate. I really don't have allergies either. I also don't drink or use any type of drugs.
Anyway, I have had dark circles under my eyes for a very long time now. I am very self conscious about them. People are all the time asking me if I'm tired and or worse yet, am I on drugs. I have tried all sorts of creams (expensive, cheap, and in between), but none have worked. Is there anything else I can do besides using cucumber slices and/or Prep. H cream around my eyes? Thank you for your help!
Has anyone dealt with asthma without using an inhaler?
I never had allergies or asthma in my life until about a year ago. My doctor prescribed an inhaler but I HATE using it. Can asthma be managed without it?
Asthma????
I use albuterol for my asthma, but lately I have been using it more. I am not having an asthma attack, but wheezing, tightness lots of coughing. The puffer occasionally works, but only after like 4 or 5 puffs. I don't want to keep using it, but right now I don't have health insurance, so can't go to the DR. I also have bad allergies…could that be why I am having more difficulties?
Have you ever taken allergy shots for eczema?
I am allergic to: pollen, various trees, dust, mites, nuts and eggs. I have atopic eczema and seborrheic eczema. It was never a big deal, but this year it has flared up on my forehead and I hate it! Thats why I am considering starting an allergy shot treatment. Have you or anyone you know taken allergy shots for these allergies to fight eczema? Can you tell me about your experiences with allergy shots? Thanks a lot.
This is a second question regarding how effective are sublingual allergy drops for bee stings?
I am considering seeing an allergist for allergy drops for anaphylaxis reactions to bee and hornet stings. But from what I read and hear they are not FDA approved and there is no scientific evidence that they really work. They may work for other allergies though. Has anyone taken these drops for bee stings and how well are they working. I have an epi-pen and benadryl injections at home if I get stung again this year. I want to start some sort of therapy very soon.
