Hay Fever

[PinkSparklyPussyCat]

Is anyone else really suffering this year? I always start coughing, getting itchy eyes and feeling generally crap this time of year but it seems to be off the scale this year. I had an awful cough from the beginning of December and a month or so after it finally went the bloody tree pollen started so I'm back to square one!

I'm the same. I keep checking the pollen forecast, and it keeps saying low pollen, but my hay fever says otherwise.

Yep.

Opened my office window for a few minutes, had to apologise to the Zoom
meeting because I was crying on the call.

Sorry you're both suffering but I'm glad it's not just me! It was pouring with rain all day yesterday and I was still suffering. It's going to be a long year 😞

I'm doing alright this year, but I started taking antihistamines every day a few weeks back. My doctor advised getting them built up in my system before the symptoms started and so far it seems to be working.

It’s intolerable at the moment. I’m on strong antihistamines, and regularly washing my face and hair.

I have said it before and I will say it again: the human body is not fit for purpose!

I have hayfever, and I take strong antihistamines for it, they are called treathay

Steroid nasal sprays are best for hay fever - you can buy beconase or boots equivalent over the counter but if they're not strong enough ask the doctor for dymista. I had some last year and it killed my hay fever stone dead.
