How Can Allergic Rhinitis Be Treated?

I am being treated with a combination of Zyrtec (10 mg) and Zantac (300 mg) once or twice a day as needed for allergies. My IGE (not sure what those are) results were at 2,000. My most profound allergies are Oak, dust mites, and cats, (I don t have a cat, range at 4). This is coupled with a few 2 s in the mix.They are suggesting I undergo monthly Xolar injections. I normally don t take medications and what I am taking now is making me so tired. Please suggest questions I can ask my Allergist on Thursday. I need help on a long range plan. Thank you!
