Allergies

[Jersey]

Ugh, I'm seriously allergic to everything in the outside world. Grass, pollen, hay etc etc. i dont know what's going on outside this weekend, but they're kicking my ass. I took a Benadryl last night and passes out hoping I would nip it in the bud. I was wrong. . /rant


What are yas allergic to?

I heard that locally sourced honey helps with hay fever. Might be worth a shot :/

I'm not allergic to anything.. but lavender and lilies give me a headache. I don't like the smell.

Now, if I can get that without getting attacked by bees that would be great. I'm allergic to them too LOL

Are there no little farm shops or organic shops that sell it? Even in the city here we have a few places that sells local honey. My father is allergic to bee and wasp stings. I have never been stung so i don't know if i am..

Yes, we have farmers markets and such where I'm sure there's honey. I will have to look into that. It's worth a shot!

I got lucky in that regard, no known allergies.

My SIL's ex boyfriend was allergic to EVERYTHING. He was a nightmare! Cant have that soap powder, Cant use any cream that will do him any good, cant take medication for symptoms of allergies, cant eat that, cant eat this, cant eat any thing with berry in the name cant eat tomato. The list was endless. lol Id feel sorry for him if he wasn't so much of a douche!

Chocolate, oranges, penicillin, pollen, cats and the oil from hot peppers. I take Aeruis(sp) prescribed by dr daily to treat my cat and pollen allergy.

A friend of mine did it and her hayfever got better.. but then we had a pants summer this year so it might not have been the honey lol. It is an easy thing to try out though so may as well give it a go. It has to be unfiltered and local to you as it will contain pollen from your region.

^^^ This is my worst nightmare..

I can handle it for the most part.. as long as I watch how much or with what foods I have it with.. It's more of a reaction with citrus and chocolate for me. And it's just hives so far.. so I am hoping it doesn't get worse cuz it will kill me lol.

I feel your hayfever pain. It's gotten a lot better but it was really bad for quite a while earlier this year.

The only definite allergy that I know of is shrimp...and it's getting worse and worse. I have sinus problems aggravated by lots of scents and I am DREADING the pollen season b/c I've already started having sinus-related nose bleeds and theres not even any pollen on the ground yet!!!
