Both boys seem to be mending just fine. Jake looks a thousand percent better, but Luke didn't start improving until he started taking the cortizone does-pack -- and it's a huge improvement. Which means I may actually sleep tonight instead of waking up every little while (about every 45 minutes) to check on him; I kept dreaming that in the middle of the night, his throat and nose has swollen shut and he was fighting to breathe. It never got that bad (it looked much worse, but never actually got that bad), though it probably didn't help to have the second doctor I spoke to last night warn that I may have to take him to the emergency room if he didn't improve. But he's gotten quite annoying in the last hour or so (drumming on things, telling really bad puns), so he's definitely on the mend. (Too bad the puns weren't killed by the allergy.)
