TRANSCRIPT Presenter: These days we're all too familiar with the word allergy and phrases like 'I'm allergic to pollen or eggs or cats•. There's a general perception too that more people have allergies than in the past. Is this because the subject is getting more exposure in the media, or are we really becoming less resistant to allergens? These are just some of the questions we’ll be tackling. In today's phone-in programme. In the studio with me today are Dr Mary Egerton, a family doctor, and allergy specialist Dr Mohamed Bawadi to answer your questions. Our first caller today is Tim from Edinburg h. Tim, what's your question? Tim: Hi, right, well, I suffer from hay fever, you know - I'm very allergic to grass and the pollen from certain trees - especially in the spring. The really peculiar thing is that my allergy didn't begin until I was in my mid- thirties. What I want to know is, why did I start so late, and do you think my allergy could disappear again just as suddenly or am I stuck with it now? Presenter: Dr Egerton, would you like to answer Tim first? Mary Egerton: Hello, Tim. Your story is a very common one. The fact is that allergies do not discriminate - they're just as likely to affect the old as they are the young. I'm afraid they can develop at any time of life from one day to 60 years and beyond.

Mohamed Bawadi: Can I just add to what Mary has said? There is now evidence from research around the world that the most common age to develop an allergy is in your late teens, so you've not done too
