Hi. I'm Lil' Bit and I'll be embarking on a 2012 AT thru-hike. The problem is, I'll be in the middle of an allergy shot regimen. I've been receving them for a year now and I know I'll still need them while I'm on the trail. Instead of having to bounce my vials ahead to a few different allergists/health depts., I'm actually looking to see if there's perhaps a Registered Nurse that will be thru-hiking with me. My immunologists said I would be able to get shots from anyone as long as they're an RN. I would be willing to pay in cash/food for the injections. I receive them twice a week right now but would be able to cut back to once a week or once every 14 days if need be. Please feel free to email me or reply to this post.

Thanks again,
Lil' Bit

Last time I was on allergy shots, I gave them to myself in my arm. Pretty simple really if you can get a RN to teach you how to do it.

Also, doesn't the serum in the vials need to be refrigerated? That may be your biggest issue on the trail.
