Yea, and my wife has allergies as well. But we have a Himalayan cat as well. 7 toes on one foot, 6 on the other! And sweet as you can imagine. My wife takes pills as he is her 'Sammy'.
On the down side, there is no pet to cuddle.
My wife has allergies. It is not the actual pet fur (or hair), but the mites and dust in them that are the allergy triggers. We dont have an ION air cleaner, just a HEPA vacuum that I run (usually) once or twice a week.
It probably helped, but did not cure. The vacuuming (and special cover for the bed and regular washing of the bed sheets) helps her, but does not get rid of it.
It really is self imposed on her part. When I met her, she had 4 cats (One died). She brought me 3 (strays at the animal shelter that were about to be put down), and when we got married, well - we now have 6 cats! And instead of keeping them outside, she lets them sleep with us in our bed. They do not bother me, but bless her soul, she does suffer.
You are actually very close to the truth. Science is not really concerned with it because it is not life threatening and aviodable. It is treatable, and the treatments exist now.
They go for the big bucks, not the (neccessarily) easy ones.
Been there and done that.
Depressing.
In your dreams.
