Covid testing again due to allergies

Unfortunately my allergy has flared up again yesterday and quite badly this time. I did take antihistamine beforehand but it hasn't helped. I started to dust my house, which collects so much despite doing it 3x a week and hoovering as well and that is it. Coughing, sneezing, nasal passages so swollen that my nose is completely blocked up, it honestly feels like I have a cold but if I did, my throat would usually hurt a few days before (my throat is always sore but haven't had a sore throat for over a week as pollen count has dropped where I am). This has came on suddenly. My nose is unfortunately still blocked and I have a cough from post nasal drip. My employer is telling me to get a covid test...again. I said they're not even on the list of symptoms but she said she's not taking any chances. I am so fed up of having to do this all the time. What about when winter comes, what are we going to do then?

Can I recommend you buy an airpurefer. No dust no allergies.

I have a purifier in with my dehumidifier machine. My house is prone to mould and damp which it doesn't have right now because dehumidifier is preventing it. Would it be OK still? I'd give that a go if it means my allergies would just piss off.
