I hate what the summer brings....my allergies. I have had allergies (or hay fever as it is called here in England) since I could remember. I have been on every allergy medication that exists and honestly I don't think any of them really work, at all. I have tired the pill form (Claratin, Allegra, Zyrtec) and the nasal form (Flonase and something else that I took as a kid) and I have tried them together and still nothing. I have the eye drops that say on the side of the bottle, "Place 1 to 2 drops in the affected eye(s) up to 4 times a day." Right, 4 times a day, I have already gone through a bottle of the stuff. I have tried allergy shots, twice and they are just a pain to keep up with. The only thing that I have found that works is well nothing. The only thing I haven't tried yet is the honey thing. You get honey from the local area and take 1 tsp. a day and it should relieve your symptoms over time, I think?
So Andi, why not avoid things that you are allergic to? Well it is funny that you say that cause I'm allergic to everything. Grass, most trees, my own dogs, pollen, dust, certain dust mites, mold, and the list goes on. It wasn't so bad when I can just lock myself in the house with the AC blasting, but again, no AC here and unless I want to die of suffocation then well, the windows and doors stay open to get the air flowing throughout the house.
So as much as I LOVE the summer.....bring on the fall. I'm also hot all the time because I'm pregnant and want to walk around the house naked. Tim keeps saying to me at night, wow you are so hot, how can you stand it? Ahhh....the things women do??? If they only knew the half of it......
