What are the chances of getting rid of bad cat allergies with allergy shots?

Question by The Apprentice: What are the chances of getting rid of bad cat allergies with allergy shots?
I have always had really bad allergies to cats but I love them so much so it is really hard to have allergies. I am a wreck if I am in a house that has/had a cat(s).
I heard that there is treatment with allergy shots over a 3 year period but there are no guarantees that it will work and it would cost me about $ 1200 in total to do.
Do you think it is worth it? How high is the success rate?

It takes about 5 yrs worth of shots to get rid of allergies. They have studied and found that after 5 yrs, the shots don’t do any good.
