If I did a sponsored sneeze event...
« on: July 05, 2014, 08:24:48 pm »
I've realised that I could supply millions of pounds a year to more than ten charities for the rest of my life  :fighting: :fighting: :fighting:   :booty: :sad1:

Cetrizine hydrochloride based tablets work pretty well with me so I know the fix, it's just I hate living on tablets. Can't be good for us long term so only take when my nose turns into a tap and by the time my face looks like Hitch, when he has the allergic reaction. And as it's chronic rhinitis that I've got, it's all year round  :wink: Literally everything sets it off, animal hair, tree sap, pollen, change in room temperature, dust, raw onion, spray of aftershave... As you can tell, I'm the perfect SAS sniper  :grin: :laugh: :fighting:

Who else suffers nasal related allergies, rhinitis, hayfever or similar? Fun, isn't it  :evilgrin:

Yep

I've found a combination of Beconaise nasal spray and the tablets helps best.

Apparently a spoon full of local honey a day is meant to help with hay fever but you have to start earlier in the year

That's what my sister does, spoonful of local honey each day and it does work.

I get terrible hayfever. I get a prescription drug called Avamys and it's bloody brilliant. Once it's got to work I only have to use it 2 or 3 times a week.

Weirdly, when I went to Florida a couple of weeks back all the symptoms disappeared and then came back with a vengeance as soon as I was back in the UK.

Yeah we got bad pollen over here with all the fields so close to built up areas etc and the weather conditions. I use the nasal spray with piriton aswell it seems to work for me.

It's not nice at all :(

Zirtec are really good, once a day and don't make you too drowsy. Just got over toxic food poisoning from sh*ttake mushrooms which seems to have eased the hay-fever symptoms the past week  :stupid: :confused: i wouldn't advise eating sh*ttake mushrooms undercooked OR raw  :scared:
