I never used to suffer from hayfever but thi weekend I seem to already have it- sniffly, running eyes, on and off headache… anyone else?! And can hayfever cause body aches? Apart from tablets any remedies that you can recommend?

Nasal sprays such as Beconase are best for itchy throats/palates. And eye drops for eyes.

Sunglasses outside, Vaseline in the nostrils, have a shower and change clothes when you come in, don't dry clothes outside.

I take a 24 hour antihistamine at bedtime, so it's at peak strength when the pollen rises in the early morning. Then I use the nasal spray when I get up.

Red light devices can reduce inflammation

Always bad this time of year, tree pollen. Pirinase and eye drops works for me, start doing it late March.

I had a cold but think it's hay fever on top as itchy, watery eyes and sneezing while gardening today.

Copyied this from this from the thread i just started.it works every year and just setting it up this month

I used to get hayfever every summer i needed hayfever tablets and nasal spray symptons were bad.But i don't get it now.Every season april or may i have to change my diet to virtually all organic food and my soap and deoderant spray must have no chemicals.
I can get away with 2 evening meals with some pesticide food a week,its a vegan diet with raw vegetables eg spinach and brocoli,lettuice,tomato carrots.
i have been on it for 15 or 16 years.
Its 100% gone now.If i change my diet in hayfever season the symptoms takes 4 days to wear off .
One year i changed my diet and still had symptoms because i forgot to change my soap to none chemical.
One years i gave my former meal pesticide grapes a good wash but still had symptoms
Its worth a try and it tells me that the pesticides in my food and chemicals in my soap gave me hayfever.Hope this info helps,John
