Allergic to grass pollen myself, and it's driving me mad atm. Have these pills I'm supposed to take every morning, but doesn't help shit right now. :p
Nose running etc, and it gets worse if I go outside. Sucks!

Anyone else allergic to anything?

Allergies make my life suck :(

I'm allergic to all the usual things - animal hair, pollen, dust mites etc etc, and I have the usual allergic reactions (streaming, itchy eyes, runny nose, sneezing etc) as well as asthma and eczema that get worse when I'm exposed to allergens. Worst of all is that I have allergic cystitis, which is where I get a lot of bladder pain and discomfort when my allergies go off.

I'm on steroid treatments for my asthma and nasal allergy stuff, and I take benadryl (acrivastine) and hydroxyzine for my bladder which work some of the time, although I'm rarely pain free.

If you get hayfever make sure that you either take your antihistamine pills regularly, or if you're on a nasal steroid (flixonase, beconase, nasacort etc) you will have to be taking it every day for at least a week for it to start working, but when it does work its much better than the pills, as it completely blocks the allergic reaction rather than just limiting it.

I tend to get pretty nasty hayfever around this time of year. Though normally i get some antihistamine from my GP. After looking at the ingredients it seems the prescription stuff is cetirizine dihydrochloride, wheres OTC is just cetirizine hydrochloride. Fuck knows if that makes it stronger :)

My heart goes out to you guys.

I have had hayfever (ranging from birch to grass) since I was 13.. later on I got fure, some nuts (not all, can still eat cashew and pinuts and some others), carrots, kiwi.

It was so bad, I stayed at home around midsummer.

This year, I havent taken any medication at all.. the birch whent past with out me event notice it... felt strange.. and it has been realy alot of it in the air this year. The grass is prolly at its hight right now.. and Im feeling just midly effects of it.

Im 36 now, have faith guys.. It might, just might be better someday.

i suffer from Erythropoietic Protoporphyria (can find more details here http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/diseases/facts/erythropoietic.htm)

In short, im photosensetive to UV Rays :(
Ouch, that sucks :(
(But on the brighter side, you can say you're a vampire and have proof to back it up :p)

I'm only mildly allergic to various foods. I can't eat processed sugars for instance (the cristalized sugars). They make me all nervous, irritated and give me the worst stomach ache. Also shrimp/lobster and onions makes me dash for the bathroom, but those things are easy to work around.

One thing though, that Protoporphyria may go in time according to that website you linked to, and so can hayfever. My brother used to have the latter, but now he's got no problems at all anymore. So there's still hope guys ;)

I started with hayfever about 5 years ago, funnily enough it has totally stopped this year and I haven't had a single day where it has bothered me. Have even been able to manage to do some gardening. My brother reckons it was the medication I was on for my back pain that was making me hyper-sensitive to dust and pollen so now that I have cut right back on the medication my body has re-adjusted.

It is nice to be able to enjoy the summer again, thats for sure :)

Oh, as for tablets, I always found Clarytn much much better than the other allergy medication when it comes to hayfever.

I have hayfever with some of the common symptoms (sneezing, itchy eyes, and the perpetual feeling that you're gonna sneeze).

Best way I overcome is to barricade myself in a room, not letting anyone in, keeping all the windows shut etc. I seem to be fine then ;p. Gets a bit hot sometimes though.
