What misery! The trees are in flower and I am about to drown. I haven’t had hay fever like this since… since the last time this wretched season rolled around.
My condition is immune to drugs. I’ve had to warn the organizers of the debate tonight at the Law School that I won’t be able to moderate, because I can’t stop blowing my nose long enough to ask a question.
If the nasal spray I picked up a while ago from the pharmacy (ipratropium bromide) suddenly works in the next hour, I’ll show up. Otherwise not.
I feel terrible about that, although I feel worse physically. I hear one of the candidates might not make it, either, but that’s no excuse for me not to. Maybe if I try that spray one more time…
I should add that I have felt too rotten to focus on doing a “virtual front page” this afternoon. Sorry..
I came on to the Law School, with a box of tissues and a pocketful of cough drops. I’m going to TRY to moderate…
Made it through the debate! Thank goodness for Puffs Plus…
You must be miserable! I hope you feel better soon.
Brad, try eating some LOCAL honey for a while.
I know it sounds kinda wierd, but the honey may in fact neutralize your toxins ,by exposure.
It’s gotta be from a local source though.
Feel better soon.
I usually can keep my allergies at bay with year-round Zyrtec capped off with a Chlor-trimeton or Benadryl chaser during peak season, but I’m pretty itchy, drippy, coughy myself this year. I think all the rain has brought a bumper crop of tree pollen, with a chaser of mold.
My mom had some success with shots. She still takes antihistamines during peak season, though. Have you tried shots?
