Allergies I hate the beginning of spring and the ending of summer.  That is the worst time for me, my eyes run water and the sneezing is horrible.

You might want to look into NAET for allergies.  It stands for Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Techniques.

Look it up on Google.

Allergies have been really bad this year. Since it's been way too nice here in Colorado, it started earlier and I'm suffering like almost 2 month... Miserable. I just can't find a good medicine that works :sad1:

Allergies are bad here in Missouri too.  My husband is up several time a night unable to breathe.  He found some stuff at Target that's pretty inexpensive that seems to be helping - hope it continues to work  :thumbsup:

Yah I know how you feel. I get shots every month and take Zyrtec and I still have lots of problems. :crybaby2: :crybaby2:
Title: Re: Allergies!
Post by: surveysmillenium on May 01, 2012, 10:59:54 pm
Everyone should check with their doctor before taking any medication...but I recommend Allegra (Fexofenadine). It used to be prescription only and several months ago it went OTC. It is non-drowsy and it seems to work better than Claritin. Zyrtec is good too but it can make u feel drowsy. I have 1001 allergies so I feel your pain.

Post by: hensleyll on May 02, 2012, 05:46:58 am
Thanks,i took allegra years ago maybe i will try it again

THis time of year especially, but pretty much at every season change, I wake up every morning and can barely breath because my nose is so plugged up and my head hurts a little as my sinuses are inflamed. It will be over soon and summer will be here ;D

I hope you all look up MessiahMews' recommendation. There are natural remedies. Two other options are  "Native Remedies" and "Chinese medicine; Michael Tierra".
There is hope in truthful information.

I have allergies too. I take medicine my doctor prescribes for it. I don't go without it so I don't suffer as much as I used to before I started taking medicine. Try it see your doctor it might help. :)

My allergies tend to bother all year round. I definitely felt it today at work and had a miserable time. I unfortunately keep a container of allergy medicine at my desk that makes me drowsy (I need to eventually replace this with non-drowsy) and forced myself to take this to survive the day.

Hang in there hensleyll... after the spring starts to fade, so will your allergies.  Besides, you're a "hero" member so nothing bad can happen to you! ;)

Allergies are pretty common. Both genes and environmental factors play a role.

The immune system normally protects the body against harmful substances, such as bacteria and viruses. It also reacts to foreign substances called allergens, which are generally harmless and in most people do not cause a problem.

But in a person with allergies, the immune response is oversensitive. When it recognizes an allergen, it releases chemicals such as histamines. which fight off the allergen. This causes allergy symptoms.

Post by: jbarrows1015 on May 15, 2012, 04:30:09 am
i hate allergies. they are really kicking my butt so far this year. The thing that I have found to help me is to have a air conditioner. when the weather gets warm enough for some reason the air helps my allergies and to help me breath better when I sleep. maybe this will help some of you. I have to be allergic to everything. Perfume, pollen, flowers, cut grass, straw and hay(i hate haying season), rag weed just to name a few. My husband has allergies too. he takes two nose sprays and eye drops. I take one pill twice a day. this is how i felt this morning with a bad sinus headache :BangHead:

I don't normally have spring allergies ... mine are more in the winter when the house is closed up.
I am usually more allergic to my animals rather than pollen .. but .. this year has been terrible even
for me.

You know the pollen is bad when my black car gets wash and 2 days later is covered in yellow pollen

Sorry to hear so many people are suffering...but glad to learn that I am not alone.  I think my allergies have been worse this year than ever....i wonder if it has anything to do with having such a very mild (almost No) winter .....
and i can't seem to find any OTC meds that work at all
Title: Re: Allergies!
Post by: vicogden on June 04, 2012, 11:29:52 pm
