It sounds to me as if you have hayfever. Just because you tessted negative for it a year ago doesn't mean you don't have it now. A lot of allergies take time to develop, years even. I think it would be worth going back to your doctor and seeing what's going on. Have you tried taking anti-histamines to see if they help? Hopeyou find out what it is. Hugs, Jennie

I wonder if your symptoms respond to OTC's of any kind.
What is an Asthma test ?

It's not bad going to an allergist - Also getting the skin tests done may have a different result than the bloodwork.
It depends on your insurance whether or not you need a referral.
