Griffin's allergies

We brought Griffin to the ENT last week to have his ears checked because he always complains that he's dizzy whenever he's riding a car. The doctor checked his ears, he did not see anything bad. We also told him that Griffin always had colds. He said it was allergies, as he saw Griffin's eyes. He checked his nose and throat and said Griffin had inflamed or enlarged tonsils, I'm not exactly sure. He also checked Griffin's balance and said he had a slight imbalance because he was slightly swerving to the right during the test. I don't know if the test was accurate because Griffin said his right shoe wasn't worn properly. Anyway, griffin was given Alnix and Avamys nasal spray to treat his allergy. He has been taking the meds for more than a week now and he's been allergy free so far. He has not complained of a clogged nose nor does he have colds. I am happy that he does not have to suffer from allergies anymore. So far, he also hasn't complained about dizziness in the car too which he never fails to complain of before taking the meds. His dizziness surely was caused by his allergies. It was not motion sickness after all because he also felt dizzy at times even when not in the car although not as bad. I'm glad that he no longer has to suffer from a clogged nose, something which I could not relieve him of.
