Come on then... Who here is feeling the woes of the common HayFever bug?

The last few days mine has suddenly started to catch up with me, and im feeling it now Thumbs Down

Benadryll kind of semi-working but thats about it Sad

Its soo irritating when your trying to do something, and your eyes just start balling with water and go all puffy Sad And you can stop sniffing / sneezing Sad

Oh Woe Is Me Crying or Very sad

I've never suffered from hayfever in my life.

But. Over the last two or three years, I've noticed my eyes have been watery, my nose has been dribbling and itchy (especially when lying down in bed), I'm sneezing for no reason at all and I'm getting a 'sore' (thick) head (completely independant of the drink, I hasten to add).

Is this a sign of hay fever ?

If so, why am I suffering now when I've never suffered before Crying or Very sad

Sounds like it mate. Not sure about the thick head though. Hayfever can strike at any time in life. Smile

Yeah the heavy head is a symptom aswell mate. I get it quite a bit Thumbs Down

Although today has been realy weird for me...

Ive had all the symptoms i normally get - eyes, nose etc...

But ive also been realy realy light headed and wobbly - i was like it yesterday aswell... and of course i have to take those benadryll anyway, to stop the other symptoms - so i can actually move around...

So ive been walking around like a complete plonker today Laughing

There seems to be so much more rape seed around than there used to be, and that stuff just makes my whole head run.

Don't get too bothered by other pollen, but rape seed is evil.

yea i get it really bad. They put me on steriods lat year for my exams as that stops the effects im told but only had then 2 weeks for exams. Kind of worked but was hoping they would be 100% but werent.

This year i have been much better but this is due to hardly going out due to accident. Going to start going out more now as better(ish) so will feel it again Thumbs Down

Mine started a few days ago to. Its not was bad as it has been in the past, but still bloody annoying!

I saw a new nasal spray advertised on the Tube this morning, Flexonase or something along those lines, advertised as 'Hard as a Rhino in riot gear'. Sounds like my kinda stuff!

For those with bad eyes, I used Optrex eye drops, the most effective thing I've used! Not specifically for Heyfever but it stopped my eyes watering and being itchy! Thumbs Up

Try Loratadine 10mg tablets, or a nasal spray. i find both work equally as well

My lady reckons I'm getting the cold she had last week.

But It doesn't feel like a cold, 'cos' it's not getting me down like a cold.

Just a dribbling nose, runny eyes, painful sinus and 'numb' head.

But it still doesn't feel like a cold Confused

And I know, I've had more than my fair share just lately Thumbs Down
