A member asked:
Grass showed up as 6 on allergy testing.scale is 0-6. now next year when i test again will numbers go down after the shots i will be starting?

Possible: It is possible to see the score coming down after a year of shots . HOwever it is how you respond to the grass exposure which is most important. Given that the scoring is often based on log scale, it may take a 10-fold reduction to achieve a single digit reduction.
