So what do you do about allergies? Any good suggestions/ideas? Right now
my nose is like a leaky faucet that won't turn off! I've tried a lot of
different things like allergy medicines, hot tea, hot baths, cleaning up
my apartment (dust), and drinking lots of fluids. Do I just have to chop
off my nose???

Try going for some allergy tests if you haven't already to see what you
are allergic too and they can give you injections of histamines to build
up your resistance to them!!!!

I had allergy shots for awhile until I got pregnant!!!!!

Ooh I didn't know they had shots for allergies! That sounds awesome. I'm
ALL over it...aaa....aaaaaa....Chhooooooo!!!

yeh go to an allergits..turns out im allergic to everything.. he
put me on "nazelx" nasel spray and Clariton..works
wonders..

Some people use air filters and such. Wash your bedding weekly in hot
water to kill house dust mites and run your pillows through the dryer on
hot for 20 minutes (I think that is what they told me). I have dust
mite allergy, is almost impossible to get rid of those things. A trip
to the doctor for testing is good, and you can do the shots if you want,
I never did, have just put up with them. I use the prescription nasal
sprays when they get bad, and over the counter meds, Sudafed for
congestion, and prescription antihistamine (Singulair) or you can buy
Claritin over the counter now. Other than trying to keep the house as
dust free as possible, with things blooming now, there is a ton of
pollen out there. Use hypoallergenic laundry detergent and I don't use
fabric softener or anything with perfumes in it. Hope this helps.

I have had bad allergies for a lonnnnnngggg time too and they are a big
pain in the BUTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!


I have a low resistance to meds and even the non-drowsey medication
makes me drowsey...Go figure!!!!!!!!!

It's just kind of ridiculous...everything is in bloom and I haven't been
able to get a good night's sleep for a few weeks now. Okay so I will try
the washing of my bed linens and pillows weekly, and also going to the
doctor to see what kind of shots are available. I'll also go to Safeway
or something to see what kind of over-the-counter meds I can get.

i got a ole indiain cure that works real good

my doctor has checked it out n it knocks all kinds of infection


90% of people has this in their homes n dont know its a cure

get a patato here we call it taters

boil some water n while pealin the tator

put the tator peals in the water
not the tater itself

boil the tator peals to a rollin boil

let set till its warm

drink it before bedtime

knocks out all kinds of infections out of ya body


now i didnt say it taste good
but it works

I know what you are saying, La..I have so many allergies, don't think I
could stand that many shots. It has rained here, hopefully washing the
pollen out of the air...should help.
I have tried an old fashion remedie...Vicks vaporub, helps some.

The boiled potato trick works? I'll have to try that one! Now, Vapo-rub,
I haven't tried that one yet.

yup it works on all kinds of infections

my own doctor has not given me a flu shot since i started it
(18 years)nor has he given me anythin for infections

bein out in west texas ya can pickup infections fast


party on...

don't take Vaporub orally rub it on your chest and
put a warm cloth over it.

Dang, I'd never make it as gynocologist..

Make an appointment with an alergist.They can do alot for alergies now a
days. (oh-sorry)

I can personally testify that it works

I use to get real bad tooth infections

But when Steper told to drink that

It works

One of my women use to have infections {female ones}

But started drinking that and poof
No more

Who would think just one cup a day could do so much

I cant spell this evening...

Msteddy, it's

An idea for next year.
Go to the local farmers market, now, and buy some wild bee pollen. You
want it freshly collected in the season that affects you the most. Put
it in the fridge. This next winter, start adding it to things you eat,
like smoothies and such. You’ll start to build up a tolerance before the
blooms bust open.
I did this when I moved to where I am now. It made a big difference and
I can make it through the spring and summer with just a few sneezes.

Good luck with this year, shots seem to help folks in the short term.

my 10 year old has allergies so bad her ENT is talking about a minor
surgery said it would not stop it completely but would slow her drip way
down. so we will see i have to take her back in a couple of weeks the
nasonex and claritin and even low dose of steroids has never helped her
we just keep going in this cycle! it is awful!! feel so bad for her!

I've run the gamut on allergy meds. Steriods, antihist., the works. I
know what it is; the doc knows what it is--it's the animals! Since
getting rid of them is not an option, I guess I'll just have to shut up
and live with! Esperenza, don't chop off your nose. Even if it's
useless, it's a nice decoration on your face. HAHA
