LDH, the nasal wash sounds like a plan. I'm going to look into it!

Thanks

Pollen is lying in drifts along the streets down here and clinging to the tires of vehicles and making them yellow with pollen dust.

Frannie, that sounds like allergy hell! I don't think I'm going to be moving there.

I was at work on Friday and kept sneezing, my eyes were swollen and watery, and my head hurt around the sinus cavities and then the right side of my nose swelled up.

Under74, when mines gets that bad, I end up having to take a steroid shot. Does steroids help your allergies? You sound like you better get to the doctor. Quick! (((hugs)))

Sorry to hear you are not feeling well. I know what you are going through. I live here in Florida and the pollen is all over the place. My cars are yellow with pollen every day. It is no fun. I am on 3 allergy meds. I take zyrtec, singulair and rhinecort spray and if my eyes get real itchy I use visine allery drops. I am hoping for some rain soon in hopes of washing some of this stuff away.

I can sympathise too. I get hayfever and the only treatment that works for me is Piriton - which makes me veeerrry tired

In the UK if you have severe problems, you can go to the docs and get a course of desensitization injections. Do they have a similar treatment available in the US that you could possibly try?

Emo, I tried to get through a series of those shots and never finished. It takes so long to get desensitized, and I hated sitting in the doctor's office. I have heard that the shots don't work for everyone, so I got to thinking I was wasting my time. I think that this is something that I'll just have to learn to live with. I just hope that I don't get fired during my allergy bouts. I tell you, I'm almost worthless during this time. When it comes to working, it takes all the strength that I can muster to go in. On days that I do make it in, I load up on my medications, and just muddle through.

Such is life! I wrote my boss a note explaining my predicament, but I don't know if it will help any. Sometimes, I think that it is SO ironic that I'm at work helping sick people when I need to be at home in bed.

Oh well! I need money. Gotta pay those bills. Ya know what I mean?

I really don't have a problem with alergies but for what it's worth, I had a really big pimple on my rear that I finally squeezed over the weekend.
