allergies

[low_delta]

I've got my usual spring allergies. I think my biggest problem is tree pollen. Normally, I take allergy medication only when I'm going to be outside. This year... the usual meds don't seem to be working. I took some before mowing the lawn the other night, and it was horrible. My nose was running horribly, and then my eyeballs started itching. Possibly my worst attack ever. Today, I was outside, but it was in the city, so I didn't think to take any. After getting home, I felt crappy, but at first I blamed it on the margaritas. Then I realized it must be allergies. So I took a pill, but nothing changed. My head feels all gummed up.

I can relate! I'm sorry. New meds are probably in order, or a combination of two or three, depending. Mold was especially bad this past autumn and winter and a lot of people were suffering more than in seasons past. My *new-ish* cat allergies are sometimes incredibly horrible, even when I keep the meds (3, including a nasal spray) in my system, but the norm should be more controlled. Good luck finding something, or having something prescribed, that will help.

Funny, it hasn't bothered me much since I posted this. Which is good, because I'm now sick. Sore throat and such.

My allergy meds are not working this year so I suggest you find something else and take it daily. Just taking it when you go outside to work probably won't work this year.

take it daily

Good idea.

It seems to be a bad allergy year all over the country this year.

Yup. This is the worst pollen season in quite a while. Stan's head gets so bad sometimes, he feels like he really shouldn't be trusted to drive.

Are there any shots for that?

Only if your allergies are severe, I think.

Well gosh! Yours sounds pretty bad!

Only for a few days. They haven't bothered me since Sunday.
