i do badly i take medicine for it but it seems to get worst every year do you have any advise for all that do suffer from this problem :wave: :heart: :star: :star:

Yes, I do. I'm on so many meds for that and asthma. They finally figured out that my allergy cells are not protecting me right, so they are trying me on shots (Xolair), in which it goes in and is supposed to protect my allergy cells for me. But they haven't kicked in yet. I hope they do soon, because it doesn't seem like any of the meds are helping me. Like you, it just worsens each year and I now have the chronic bronchitis that keeps me from totally getting well.
I really hope they can find something to help you. Even with all the meds I'm on (prescription), I still take Benadryl capsules to try and help. Have you tried those? Take care and keep me posted! :)

Do not wait until it is too late! Boost your immune system: Make sure you take enough vitamin C and water every day.

check Bioactive Nutrients website. Allergies are a sign of something deeper. you have to treat the root of sickness, not the symptoms. Caprylic Acid and Olive Leaf Extract in conjunction with carrot juice. That combo helped me. Read the article on that website...best wishes.

Yes. I'm allergic to dust, mold and mildew, and springtime.

no i dont suffer from allergies

I have mild to moderate allergies. On the plant allergies, I pretty much have some allergy to most anything green (trees/grasses). I have spore allergies (molds, and plants like mushrooms).
Pet allergies are mostly limited to cats - how bad my reaction tends to cycle over the years from being able to be in the same room and just not touch them, to needing to take something before I walk into the house just to carry on a conversation. According to my tests I have a very mild allergy to dogs, but if I react - I've never noticed.
My food allergies are very weird. Lima beans cause me to break out with canker sores in my mouth. Alcohol triggers my asthma - any kind of alcohol - so I'm always designated driver. ;D
-
My allergies usually attack during mornings after I wake up, but will sometimes happen later in the day. I have food allergies, and allergic to iron, baking power, and baking soda. I've tried Benadryl, Alavert, and other over the counter medicines, but gave them up since they no longer are helping me.
-
OMG yes! :( I take so many drugs for allergy
problems. it is awful! I hate hate hate spring!!
I am miserable and have a freaking sinus infection
almost constantly. Sigh.... dont get me started.
-
I do suffer from allergies, but mine are mostly seasonal. When they start to act up I usually have to go get perscriptions from my doctor, but as I take them my body always becomes immune to them sooooo I always have to take multiple ones and change them every year.

I hope that not happen to us. But unfortunately it does. I cough all seasons long. I hope it will go away.
-
Yes seasonal allergies what works for my flare up is lots different things Allegra is good Zyrtec and Clartin but all treat allergies differently so be sure to ask what new possiblity u just havent found right combo yet. Good luck Spring is here.
-
i dont personally but my boyfriend does, he uses the teapot thing where it goes in one nostril and out the other. helps him breath

I do I do! I'm from Japan and even thought it's much worse in Japan (people say pretty much all of Japanese will get allergies from flowers or trees eventually) but I was fine when I was still living there. But it started like 2 years ago after living in the US for 5 years. No fun... Spring is my most favorite season and I feel miserable.
-
It's the tree pollen at the start of Spring that really gets me. I covers everything in a blanket of yellow pollen. My eyes continually itch during that time. After the tree pollen season is over, I'm good until Fall when all the harvested crops are done with, and the fields are molding, which gets carried on the wind. My allergies are nothing like they used to be. I take Zyrtec everyday. Also have a puffer for those congested times.
I do so much better in dry climates (desert), and can't stand the humidity. Then there's problems. I could never live in the southern states.
-
I used to suffer real bad. My allergies gave me strep throat
alot when I was growing up. I finally was referred to an ear,
nose, and throat DR. He gave me shots for about 9 months
and I havn't had a sore throat in 20 yrs. I still have some
allergies, but nothing like I used to.
-
My allergies are so bad right now i feel like i have the flu. It's horrible.

Thank you for the tip! I will check out the website. :)

Ugh...it seems like a never-ending battle. It seems like there's an allergy for every season :BangHead:
-
I'm not really sure. I've never been diagnosed but growing up on a farm I would always have sneezing fits and my eyes would get all watery and scratchy in the spring and fall. Those are classic signs of allergies but my parents always said no no no it's just from the dust in the barn...so I've never really had to take anything for it except for when it gets really bad for weeks. Then it's time for the good ole benadryl :)
