Is the pollen making you sick?

[loulizlee]

Unfortunately, my allergies have turned into an upper respiratory infection.  I have not been feeling very good this past week.  Yuck.

So sorry to hear that. I don't get any problems until I mowed the lawn. Then I would have sneezing and eye irritation together. The next few days will be excruciating then I dies down and continue on when I start mowing again. It is terrible!

Not really making me sick, just tired of the runny nose and dry cough, I need to start taking my allergy medicines.

[reiddb]

No, I don't have allergies. I'm really sorry for all you who do!

Don't think pollen will make you sick it will make you miserable if your allergic though and may make you feel like your sick

[Skyenkit]

Yes, my husband , son , and I are currently sick because of pollen.

I've been using my neti-pot/sinus rinse every other day, and it seems to be helping.  I'm not stopped up or sneezing so maybe it's helping.

I know I do take allergy pill for it. Spring make my allergy worst

[sgluckadoo]

YES. My allergies are so bad. Losing voice, constant runny nose, sneezing, eyes bothering me, you name it. I hate this time of year.

Yes it has been show to help. It washes the irritants out of your nasal passages. I just cant stand the process. yuck.

Funny you should broach the subject as I was just mentioning this exact problem in another post!  I have had to do more outside work over the last month for my daughter's high school graduation and have been suffering miserably! I look ten to fifteen years older than my normal age because my eyes are all puffed out. Normally I am locked in my study or office with not a breath of fresh air or pollen and am able to skate safely through the allergy season...not this year. I don't get sick. My eyes get swollen, my nose is on constant drip and I am forever sneezing for about three weeks.  The pollen/allergy season seems to be coming to an end because I am getting my eyes back and am not feeling all worn out and sneezy.

Yes, I have been experiencing the allergy season lately.  I had such a terrific headache last week that I couldn't function a couple of days.

So far the pollen has not bothered me. But I know it is going to kick in soon and I will be a mess.

It's funny because it usually doesn't bother me but this year it's making me sneeze.  Who knew you could develop an allergy at almost 33?

[PGS28]

My sons and one of my daughters sneeze horribly around this time of the year but I was Claritin prepared.  The pollen leaves a thick blanket on the cars.  I can't wait to move to use my garage b/c right now I don't even bother washing my truck.
