[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 367702"] I'm sorry ML, it can be rough when a person finds out they are allergic to a beloved pet. I agree with GN too, it could be a contact derm allergy as well. Is Larry a fairly new pet in the household or has he been with you for some time and this is a new development for your husband? Steroids supress the immune system quite a bit too. Any of his medications new to him (husband's) or are they ones he's been taking for some time as well. Other things it could be: did you change laundry soap? Fabric softeners? Hand soaps or shampoo brands? Even tooth paste brand changing causes reactions for me (I'm immuno-comp'ed). Sometimes even something that didn't bother me (OTC medications, pharma medications or foods I've been eating long term or taking long term) will "change" and start bothering me. It all depends on the flare ups I'm having or starting to have. I developed both a shellfish and egg allergy in my teens and adulthood when before the development I was fine with both. [/QUOTE]
