Well, knocking down those walls most likely exposed allergens, as your implied. Have you gone back to your allergist and told him about your problems? Allergy shots do not provide immediate relief. They take years to be effective, since the whole idea behind the matter is that your body is exposed to more and more of the allergen over time. Eventually, you should become less sensitive.
I haven't heard of many allergy shot success stories... why? Because they're inconvenient and most people quit. Don't feel bad about stopping, since most people do, but just realize the reason you felt they didn't work is that you'd need to be persistent for years to see a change. It's hard to keep it up when you see no results.
I know talk oral medications and nasal spray. You just have to find the right combinations. There are many out there.
