allergist/adenoids

DS has been sick with one form of virus or other with a constant runny nose for what feels like his entire life.  Pedi has been blaming Daycare saying it's just a "daycare cold."  He's the expert so we've been willing to go along until now.

Yesterday, we saw a different doctor at the office who has referred us to an allergist to rule out allergies because she suspects LO's adenoids are the problem and may have to come out.

Anyone been down this path yet?  How did it go?  MIL has told me a trip to the allergist is "barbaric - with all those needles."   Pretty sure that's an overstatement.
