Pollution starting Allergies

Yes mine have been really bad. But I started using something called a neti pot and it really helps. Car fumes kill me. Welcome to mylot!

Believe me I know. Thankfully I still have Astelin until I can get in to see my doctor. It has been wonderful for my allergies. I was lucky enough the doctor gave me a good supply of samples. I don't know what I'd do without it. Even with it some days the allergies are kicking up but nothing like they would without it. The crazy weather really makes it hard on anyone with allergies.

You might want to consider buying an air purifier for your bedroom or living room. Not an expensive system that requires installing and costs thousands of dollars, but just a little stand like appliance that blends in and quietly purifies the air from toxins and pollen. My sister has one in her living room and they like it so much she and her husband started sleeping in there! That got old, so they bought one for their bedroom. I'm planning on getting one because my apartment neighbor smokes right outside my door, and when I open the door to leave, it comes into my apartment and seems to settle. I hate the smell. It's not good for me or my puppies.

That's a great point. I hadn't thought about the weather playing a role in my allergies. I thought they were worse because of relocating and every year here they're still worse. Thanks for making me think of other possibilities!
