Homeopathy sounds to me like a far better (more genuinely healing/strenghening)choice. The allergy shots seem to be a way of desensitizing the system...even though the substance is small, it's still working at the gross level, and I'm not sure that doesn't result in another inflammatory response somewhere else. My mother used to take allergy shots, and still suffered with allergies...and then started to get more bronchitis, and then later was diagnosed with chronic fatigue.
