Sneezy

[Railroad]

It being pollen season and all, I thought a few of you might weigh in on your tactics.

sneeze, blow, cough, sneeze, blow, cough, rub eyes, sneeze, rub eyes, blow.

I am also allergic to the building I work in. When I leave I recover very quick.

You must be miserable right now.

I tried allergy shots and they didn't work. Most antihistamines put me right to sleep or completely wire me. I usually just suffer through for the couple of weeks when the pollen count gets really high. :shrug:

One of the buildings in the Exploration complex has the same effect on a lady I occasionally work with. She literally clears up in minutes after getting out of the building. We think it's the carpet.

Allegra

I am in Expedition, which is the same. I feel sick most of the day and my eyes look like they are going to bleed.

Or mold in the ceiling tiles.

Allegra, Singulair and Nasonex or Flonase...

year round.

I used to swear by Benadryl. Then this year, it's started putting me down for the count.

I had a major overhaul of my sinuses last year (long, like 6-hour surgery) and that has strangely reduced my sensitivity to pollen - even my eyes are more tolerant.

Thanks. It's going to get worse before it gets better.

OUCH!

Good point! I hadn't thought about that.

I usually tough it out. Allegra or Claritin if it gets really bad, and I have an extra supply of Nasonex.

That, and I pray for a good rain every now and then to clear the air.

 

[Daddy_O]

I usually tough it out due to the forgetfullness to take my medicine, no matter what it is for. When I take benedryl, I am out for the count, and that is not good during the day.

I think Mine might be a mold allegry, seems to get worse after it rains.

Mine does because I have a mold allergy. I get headaches when it rain. The only thing that really bothers me is my eyes. They were itching crazy on Saturday and Sunday. The only realy allergy things I have are fatigue, runny nose, itchy eyes, and horrible headaches

Plus, they're all goopy in the morning.
Try not to wear my contacts on the weekends, just wear the specs. No big deal since I have to wear eye protection anyway when I'm on the bike.
