As temperatures climb into the 70s and even 80s this week, tree pollen is right behind it. 🌳
Warmer days mean budding trees, and for many of us, that means sneezing, itchy eyes, congestion, and sinus pressure.

If your allergy symptoms are already flaring up, now is the time to get ahead of them. Starting treatment early can make a big difference in how you feel all season long.

Don’t wait until you’re miserable. Call us to schedule an appointment and breathe easier this spring: 606-432-0174

🍽️✨ Navigating Food Allergy Costs? 💰 Here's a tax-saving scoop!

If you deal with food allergies or celiac disease, you know the expenses can add up. But did you know you might be able to deduct these costs on your income tax return? 🤔💸 Here's a quick guide:
✅ You, your spouse, or a qualified dependent must have the allergy or celiac disease.
✅ Get a doctor's official diagnosis and a written statement specifying the necessity of allergen-free foods.
✅ The purchased foods must be specific to the diagnosis.

Remember, tax law allows deductions for medical expenses exceeding 7.5% of your adjusted gross income. It's a meticulous process, requiring detailed records and receipts differentiating allergy-safe purchases.

Considering this tax-saving path? Consult a tax advisor for clarity! 📊👩‍💼
