As you age, you also can develop new allergies or become more sensitive. I suppose you could also grow out of them, but I've not heard many people doing that. I had a beloved kitty as a kid, and I could never do that now- Within an hour, I would itch, my throat would swell up and I could get no oxygen.

When we lived in the south, the cedar pollen (Cedar fever) would kick my spouse's butt. Not at first, it took like 2 years of living there, then when the trees would pop he would be miserable for weeks. For some reason that never got to me. With the plant life up north here, I am sniveling and he's not too bad.
