My son Patrick has been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, a spectrum disorder that fits under the umbrella of autism. Whether or not he is or is not, he fits the bill to a tea or is that to a tee?
Now that allergy season is here, and Patrick has allergies, Patrick's problems are magnified. I gave him the full dose of histamine medication and it wiped him out. He is sleeping.
My own eyes are itching and my sinuses are inflamed. I can only imagine what he is going through. I think it could be compared to an hypochondriac that genuinely gets diagnosed with fibromyalgia. The symptoms would be magnified. I think that is how it is with Patrick. Not only does he have the maladies associated with allergies, every sniffle, inflamation, itch is 100-fold.
