I would like to comment that if primary care doctors want to treat allergies they should do a better job as a whole to learn about them. There should not be people dying because they don't have epi pens or other auto injectors or because their doctors told them to use an antihistamine instead of epinepherine as a first line treatment of ana. There shouldn't be people saying, 'no one ever told me this could happen' after a relative dies or nearly dies. There shouldn't be doctors telling patients old, outdated, and incorrect things such as that they can't get allergy tested until 1 or 2, to avoid things that cause swelling and hives and then try again at home on their own at age 1, etc, etc. If they could do as well as allergists then certainly they should be a source of treatment but as a whole they are not doing well enough yet.
