Allergic to hay, not allergic to change

Sat here with my nose running and left eye awash with allergies, I am reminded of a happier time.
As a teenager, I was a big time asthma sufferer, and out of desparation, I went to a homeopathic doctor for a solution, This creepy little guy who resembled that character out of marathon Man, the lovely dentist, prescribed a series of 12 injections of jasmine juice. Whatever.
He was going to charge more than I could afford for the jabs, so he suggested I went to a regular doctor and asked if the nurse would do the injections. In hindsight he was quite the joker. Talk about land me in a storm.
My doctor went nuts accusing me of undermining him, going to a quack for alternative kooky treatment. How dare I expect him to administer this homeo crazy potion blah blah. Anyway, I just mentioned the minor detail that he hadn't been able to cure me in years, pumping me full of who knows what crap. That sort of shut him up, and to be fair, he let his nurse poke holes in me for 12 weeks, and you know what, it cured me totally. No controlling, or minimising symptons, a 100% end to asthma.
I had to smile when I was telling this story years later, and the person I was talking to said. "You do know that that doctor is now one of the leading lights in alternative medicine?" I didn't, but I was amazed, and I have to take my hat off to him, if I wore a hat.
Sadly I am being exposed to new allergens and the latest homeopathic anti-allergy tabs arent working at all, but you can't win em all. Time for some traditional poison to stop me dribbling onto the keyboard.
If you ever miss a day without Pisstakers, you can find a daily snapshot of The Pisstakers Satire Blog Posts (ie the homepage) in the archives
