    I have been thinking about getting on something for my allergies. I have had them so long it is "normal" for me to not be able to breathe through my nose.

    I've pretty much learned to live with mine. I take Claritin D from time to time when the grass pollen is really bad. Worst part for me is how a cold or virus can just morph into allergies. I had a chest virus last week - antibiotics knocked it out but now it's head congestion that is keeping the cough and crap hanging around.

    I tried the shots years ago but I didn't stick with them - got tired of driving from Pineville to Randolph road twice a week on my lunch hour.

    i don't get allergy people. i know there are deadly food allergies and some allergies cause asthmatic reactions. but for the most part i think it is a racket designed to relieve a runny or stuffed up nose.

    Trust me brother. I worked out in the yard all weekend and didn't take my meds. I am sitting here with one eye tearing down my face and my head feeling like a football. TN is the worst place in the world for allergies.

    This spring has been the worst in years. No rain. I fucked up this past Saturday and worked outside. I've never had an attack like I did late Sat night. snot was dripping out of my nose. My eyes were on fire and my head throbbed. I've been in VA beach the last two days, there's not a lot of Oak Trees here, so I'm ok.

    I'm going to Augusta Monday for the Masters practice round. That place is full of pollen. Going to the doctor Thursday to get meds.

    I work at davidson, and they have all those flower trees everywhere. It seems like every car is coated in pollen too. I got the same shit as you and it has no signs of stopping.

    In desperation, I took an alavert, a sudafed, and a swig of nyquil to sleep through the night.

    Read the labels and read how it destroys your liver.

    I went to the dr yesterday. he gave me samples of AlleRX and Astellin nasal spray.

    He told me I should get allergy tested and come in every week for a year for shots. I told him I travel too damn much for that.
