Mexico, New Mexico, Germany
We moved because of the military from Albuquerque, New Mexico, to Germany. My son had allergy/asthma issues before but nothing like now. He was retested since we have been here and he is allergic to mold which we did not test for in NM. His medication has been doubled since being here and he is now on 5 medicines at the age of 6. The Army is looking into moving us from Germany back to the states to a hotter/drier climate. Germany is very damp, and moldy. But we are yet to find out the best place for my son. What we do know is he was significantly better in NM. — S.K.H., Germany

I have SEVERE indoor and outdoor allergies (since birth) and moved to Florida at age 18 in 1983 from NY because I was so sick. Had a brief honeymoon period but allergies returned with a vengence and get worse each year. We are talking about moving as quality of life is not good - alleriges are year round with hives, excema etc. Lots of steroids and not much relief. I need sugestions as to where would be a good place for someone allergic to grass trees, mold, dust, pollen etc. Please help.
