Could I have hayfever?

The past few months I've been experiencing stingy, gritty, watery eyes. I get itchy around the nose, eyes and face in general. I've sneezed, not excessively and had a bit of a stuffy nose. When I blow there isn't really anything there. Sometimes it happens in the AM, sometimes it comes on at night and sometimes not at all. I was out for a walk the other AM and I was only up and out of the house a few mins when i felt the sting... had to go home, wipe eyes and I was fine.

The eye thing isn't actually new. It's happened many times before, years ago I went for a walk and my eyes started to sting. It was that bad I had to stop and call a friend to pick me up. I just stood there with my eyes closed.

I never considered it to be hayfever as I know people with hayfever and it seems pretty constant and a lot worse. This seems more mild and not constant.
