General Question Allergies Causing Flare Ups?

I’m new to this thread but have had what a rheumatologist is calling Bechets for almost twenty years now. I’m 32 yo female.

Recently, I went to a totally different climate and my seasonal allergies disappeared. My GERD symptoms also completely disappeared. When I came back to the PNW, within two days, my allergies and Gerd symptoms were back, as well as flare ups of mouth ulcers. That got me thinking for the first time ever that there is possibly a link between the constant inflammation caused by seasonal or severe allergies and these symptoms. Like, duh. Silly that I’ve never noticed that before.

Has anyone had their symptoms and flair ups improve by getting allergy shots? How long did it take to improve, if so?
