Allergies: What do you do for yours?

I really don't do much for my allergies...I'm not really into medications of any kind due to the lousy side effects, but I will use nose drops, and a saline solution of drops, but drinking mint tea is good for any kind of congestion due to allergies.

My allergy is body skin allergy and it is a hassle. I tried going to the doctor and probably everything I could think of but no use. So now I just let it be *laughs*. I try to use more high quality body care products and it seems to get better.

I have terrible allergies. I also have asthma which can make the asthma worse. I am allergic to cats and dogs as well as well as pollen. I have terrible sinus problems all summer. I like to use tylenol sinus medication to help with the headaches. I am on Sincular, zertec, and two other medications that are prescribed from my doctor. I spend a lot of time in the house because I can not take the heat. I had an Aunt that was like this and she never left her home. Wish medication I can leave my home. I think I do quite well considering. I have a mom that takes me shopping so that I do not have to be out of airconditioning long. I also have a great husband who takes me where I need to go on his day off. If you do has allergies find out what your triggers are. This is very important to controlling your attacks. Allergie attacks can put people in the hopsital if not controled. I have a friend who uses only Singular and thinks it is great. She has no problem in the summer any more. There are a lot of options for people in the medication field. It is trial and error when it comes to finding the right medication that will work for you.

I immediately increase my raw garlic and Vitamin C consumption, peaking the recommended daily allowance of c to exceed 2000mgs. My allergies do not come on heavy, thank goddess, because of the liking raw garlic on a daily basis and allowing myself to tolerate what I can of the pollutant and build resistance with three times a year for two week, an echinacea boost should I have a severe flare-up, which I haven't in four years. Must also be the green tea and raw honey I eat too . . . sharing the light, Erica Hidvegi, M.A. Transpersonal Psychology Studies Counseling/ Author, Artist, Photographer & Freelancer http://www.associatedcontent.com/user/1556/erica_hidvegi.html

I everyonce in a while take alavert which is great for me. I do not suffer from allergies like I use to. I use to live on allergies everyday of the week and lived on singular for my asthma and something for my allergies. But now they are all gone. Today I had postnasal dripp but nothing more for a long time. Yayaya.

i always have allergies especially when there is a sudden change in the temperature, or when the place I went is very dusty. my allergy always started with lots of sneezing and will lead to colds. when it occur I never take medicine, I just take plenty of water and sleep for quite awhile. i am sure that when i wake up my sneezing will be gone.

I am of dust allergy immediate relief is i took one avil25 , so that temporary relief for me otherwise i will sniff like anything with water from nose.Of course it is fine avil for me .
