mufc2010

anyone else suffering very bad with it today? what are you taking to help the matter?

GAAman

Doc put me on Loratidine and it has saved my life!

Oh wait this is AH, blast the hay fever with piss.....

Thatnastyboy

Ive been destroyed with hay fever the past few weeks myself, which is strange, because I have never had it before in my life, cunt of a racket, I go for a cycle down the lovely green lanes and I'm in a heap when I get back.

Nobody notices though, because:


my stoned face = my hay fever face

lesserspottedchloe

thankfully I was at home most of the day because I had two nosebleeds from it-yok. I find Zirtek is the only thing that has an effect as well as incorporating local honey in my diet. ireland is the only country where I get it-must be something to do with a particular type of pollen?

Today had a very low pollen count, sounds as if you have TB...I'd be 100% confident in that diagnosis.

That will be €50 please.

Yup, suffer from it quite badly, people think I've been crying as my eyes gets all ****ed up.

Sinus & throat in bits when I wake up. Have the orange Flixonase spray (not a patch on the green one but that's prescription only ) and Neoclarityn tablets. There's some Optrex spray for itchy eyes that I keep meaning to get.

Sniff some snuff, 'll fix it today.

Load up on natural anti-histamines, like turmeric, in the run-up to next years season to lessen the impact of the onset.

very bad today man?

Mine's been particularly bad over the last week - I'm surprised I haven't scratched my own eyes out by now. I can't even use most types of eye drops because they don't agree with my contact lenses.

Forget Flixonase, Beconase is what you want. Very similar packaging and available over the counter. During the summer I take a squirt of beconase and a generic zirtek every morning before going out. I take Luffa tablets throughout the Winter. Works a treat.

Red, puffy, runny eyes that I want to scratch out of my head. Either a very blocked nose or an extremely runny nose. My throat & nose are raw. Blinding headaches. Regular nose bleeds.

When you're vision gets blured & you lose what seems like a gallon of snot, tears & blood then come back to me & complain about hay fever.

Alter-Ego

I used to get awfully bad hay fever but then I just stopped being a sissy little b1tch and it went away. :pac:

Nah, Zirtek or the cheaper alternative daily and I don't get it at all. Throat is sometimes a bit scratchy in the mornings and there's the odd bout of sneezing but that's the height of it.

looksee

I get very random attacks of hay fever, lasts 24 hours then just goes away. Can be any time of year including mid winter, I have not been able to pin down what the problem is. Fortunately it only happens occasionally, maybe three times in a year, but I can literally sneeze non-stop for an entire day, then it magically goes away.

I heard one theory that elderflower tea is good to take for hayfever, but I haven't tried it.

starviewadams

Phenergan tablets from the doc,make me drowsy but better then walking around with my eyes swollen,nose running and sneazing all day.

The likes of clarityn and citrapine don't do anything for me.

Wolfe Tone

Claratin, Nazel spray, eye drops, costs a fcuking fortune and hasnt totally got rid of it

starbelgrade

Ghey fever.

Can second the beconase, it worked for me. My hay fever has reduced in severity over the last number of years too... don't know if its anything to do with the spray or not, but thank god. I used to have random strangers coming up to me in the street asking if i was okay.... my eyes used to swell up and run with tears all the time... ughhh

Crazy Horse 6

Generic beconase and zirtek in the morning and evening plus eye drops twice a day. I've tried everything else including injections and natural products but nothing else works.

Aoifey!

Didn't leave the house today so I was okay, but for the last few days I've been fairly bad. The part I hate the most is how scratch-y my eyes get, can't stand it.

Piriton usually does okay for me. Doesn't get rid of it completely but makes it a lot easier to deal with.

Uriel.

I blame the hay.

I think I have hay fever all year round :-(

I sneeze 40times a day every day. I guess it's really sinus problems rather than hay fever

tan11ie

I just take a xyzal every morning during the summer months, otherwise I'd be walking around with crying eyes.

Roll around in a field and inhale some pollen. The poison is the cure.

abouttobebanned

Have to laugh at the people on facebook.

"Think I'm getting that cold that's going around"

darkmaster2

This has by far been the worst day of hay fever for me. Eughhh..:( Sneezing, headache, nose like a tap. jaysus.

Even 2 x Zirtek didn't do much to stop it.

Nikolai Stepanov

I had it bad today, been smokin' crack for the past couple hours though. Seems to have helped somewhat.

Snowie

boots own brand are pretty cheep but work really well...

JerryHandbag

I got the hay fever jab for the last few years, with varying results, but this year my doctor tells me its been withdrawn as one of the side effects was thinning of the bones! Anyone else hear this?

So I'm on Xyzal tablets, I'll never use inhalers again as they just made the problem worse.

kelle

I've been scratching my eyes and face all day today! It's horrible. I take Clarityn and Telfast (on prescription), but I think I've developed an immunity to them as they don';t appears to be as effective.

so bad today isn it

raveni

I normally get it on and off but it's been constant the last week:( My eyes are always affected the worst and for some reason one is usually worse than the other. Don't normally get any congestion but have been getting it the last week. I found clarityn to be fairly useless, piriton alright and zirtek is good but I hate wasting money on the stuff.

DOC09UNAM

try rub vicks vaporub just under your nose before you go to bed and when you get up.

Helps stop the pollen apparently or some bull****, I don't suffer from it so I don't really know if that works.

kelle

I'll try that, Doc09

I'm surfing instead of sleeping, because everytime I close my eyes I feel like there's glass in them...
