Allergies are a pain. I usually suffer them in the fall. I can't stand feeling miserable. I use some medications to help with the problem. It helps. Still, who needs to have itchy and watery eyes. Yeech!

I used to suffer from the same symptoms. I was allergic to lost of types of pollen, and I sued to itch the whole day. The solution was getting desensitized. I had a skin test to identify what I am allergic to, and underwent immunotherapy. Then for a while I had a shot a every week, and the skin where I got the shot would ball up into a painful red lump. It's because the formula is made out of the stuff i'm allergic to so my body can work at strengthening my immune system against it. After some time, I had the shots every other week, then once every three weeks and so on. Nowadays I am free!
