Prescribed anti-histamine tablets don't work. Is it possible to get injections?

Can anyone help????

Lyndsay I totally sympathise with you as I am the same - If there is a midge or mossie around then it will bite me. When I was in Wyoming on a ranch holiday many years ago, I noticed that the cowboys were using an Avon product to repel the mossies - I think it is called 'Skin So Soft'! anyway they swear by it for repelling mossies but I still laugh about that to this day. Might be worth a try though if all else fails.
