A member asked:
I do believe the allergy shots indirectly are causing an inflammatory response in my body along with antihistamines adding to it. what can i do? i'm about to stop the shots. i do not want to gain anymore weight.

Unlikely: that allergy shots cause inflammatory response or induce weight gain, antihistamines rather are appetite stimulants, review your problems with your doctor / allergist, good luck
