Allergies

I normally don't have a problem with allergies, but this year and the past few months my body has been going haywire with sneezing and itchy eyes and runny nose and so on. I was just wondering if it was just me or if the crazy weather was causing anyone else to have a hard time with allergies this year.

Yes yes, they started off crazy this year and then after reading a
thread on here about allergies and medications etc (much useful
info from Amy) I made a note to ask my Doc about some help.
 He put me on singular and Pulmicort (inhaler) the relief is
incredible.  I hate adding stuff to my routine...but I hate
allergies more!!!!!! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

It all depends on the area of the country you are in. If you had a particular rainy year in your area, maybe more plants/mold/grasses are present.

I would recommend taking care of them with some Allegra and Nasacort AQ - allergies cause inflammation in the lungs which is something we already battle with with CF.

Hope you feel better soon <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I know for us in NY that allergies are at their all time high. Partly because of a mild winter & the overall screwed up weather.
