Allergy and sinus problems
« on: October 17, 2015, 02:55:38 am »
Anyone else suffering from allergy and or sinus issues. I just bought some
Specific medication that I hope will help me. My issue is not real bad yet because I started off taking
the cough syrup for multi symptons and that helped. There are a lot of people at
my place of employment that are worst.

How are you dealing with it?

This has been a terrible allergy year. Some regions are worse for allergies than others. I live in S.Jersey which has a reputation for being terrible for those who suffer from  allergies.
Many years ago I used to take allergy shots but my doctor said my allergies had improved so I do not need them any more(yah!). I take Zyrtec. It is expensive put fortunately it comes in a generic.

I've been dealing with sinuses and chest congestion all year. I don't know what's causing it and medications aren't working.

I have this junk every year, at the same time. I take over the counter meds that do little to help. It drives me nuts.

Yes, year round. It wasn't so bad when I was living in Utah but then 2 years ago we moved to Colorado and it's been worse. I think it's because there's no humidity here. The thing that is helping me right now is some store brand cold medicine. It has some acteaminophen, nasal decongestant, and an antihistamine. Oh and it's the day time stuff. The night stuff works really well if your nose is what's keeping you up. I would also recommend a neti pot.

I have both. Sinus and allergy. I have allergy during spring season. My sinus always around December when it is very cold. It is very annoying. I know someone who had surgery to fix this problem.

Don't have allergies right now... The way I deal with it is avoid going out at days of high pollen or the day after it rains

OMG, I have been having terrible sinus headaches the past 4 days.
Thinking about going to the doctors to get some proper meds since the other the counter stuff isn't working too great.

It's been bad for both my wife and myself these past few days. She's feeling it worse than I am.
