Under Distress Without Allergy Meds

My wife suffers from bad allergies all year around. So we have to keep a supply a of allergy medicine on hand throughout the house. She keeps bottles of them in the bathrooms and in her purse. Two days ago she ran out and didn't pick any up and she had a massive flare up and has been miserable. Runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing uncontrollably. In fact she had it flare up so bad it started to make her head hurt lucky for us she called kids grandpa and asked him if he was coming our way to please bring her a pill out of his own stash or buy her a bottle and she would reimburse him. Ten minutes later he showed up with 5 boxes of otc allergy meds he has taken them and is feeling much better. Not 100% but well enough to walk around and not look like she was dying from them. Its truly a horrible feeling when those you care about are ill and you can't do anything to alleviate their suffering you feel helpless. I just kept hearing her moan ouch my head, my nose just shoot me now I feel like dog crap. We won't be making that mistake again. We will be stock piling the allergy medicine up to ensure that this never happens again. Any allergy sufferers here? I feel nothing but sympathy for you I know that it can't be good.

I'm allergic to cats and live with 5 of them. I'm real smart.

Lol I guess it depends on how bad your allergies are. The wife can walk into a place that at one time had a cat and tell because she becomes sick with symptoms and when she can't find anything then she usually asks and it turns out they had an animal indoors.

I don't think I am allergic to anything.

She has environmental allergies and allergies to animals. Cats, dogs, rabbits. Which is another reason we don't have the dog in the house unless he has to be due to bad weather.
