Hayefever
Been any medical breakthroughs in the last couple of years? Because I can't be arsed making a doctors appointment unless he's got something a bit special to pimp.
Apart from that we can just cry about our forthcoming ruined summer in this thread.
I normally only get it in April/May time
Except this year I haven't had it at all yet, haven't even been taking any antihistamines. Is it possible to just get over it?
same here
please let me just have gotten over it
I think you can kind of grow out of it
I used to have it really bad as a little kid but the last few years haven't been too bad at all. Still take a pill a day to take the edge of and I'm pretty much fine.
I grew out of it
then grew back in again.
Pollen's a twat. Do we really need it?
I had a year off last year for some reason
back with a fuckin' vengeance in 2014 though.
Fuck you pollen.
mine usually kicks in on the 1st April
but it's been six weeks late this year.
I've had some years when it hasn't been a problem, and some when it's been really bad - I work next to a park and last year I was on two or three antihistamines a day at one point and still suffering.
I guess it just depends on what specific thing you're allergic to and how much of that is around in a given year?
I started getting like itchy skin things (hives??) and stuff
last year
ugh
I get something similar, the skin on my hands gets all peel-y. it's doing it a little bit at the moment.
I went to the quacks to get some stronger pills last year
He gave me one of those sprays you stick up your nose too, that's like an atomic bomb on all pollen or something, one whack on that baby I'm good for the day easily.
Don't think there's much else fancy they can give out. Except maybe eye drops ooh glamour.
Forgot to say
First person to mention "local honey" gets some Ricin in the post.
I had a really insane bout of it about a month ago
Went to the pharmacy and asked what was new in the world of snot-relief and they gave me a little bottle that looks like an eyedropper that sprays minty cellulose powder into your nostril. Was dubious but it's the best thing I've ever used - one blast first thing in the morning and you're done. Try that
the name would be handy
Just ask for minty cellulose snot-relief powder
they'll know what you mean.
*snort*
I have to get up and go and look in my bag? This site.
Hold on a sec...
that's it luce
have a rummage in the man-bag

thank you
<3
I bought a spray
It didn't work for me! And it just runs down your throat and tastes minging.
Stick to the little tablets babes
I know how to handle my sprays
*swoon*
such a man
obviously the local honey thing doesn't work
but I've heard if you stick your arm in a local bee hive it's like getting an inoculation. can anyone testify?
not your arm
thought this was going to be one of those threads
where people post puns based on celebrity's names.

Is there anything stronger
than standard antihistamines available over the counter that anyone would recommend?
I'm definitely getting that spray stuff.
zxcvbnm- isn't zxcvbnm
IS THIS RIGHT?
This is like the meths/smee thing. But further down the rabbit hole.
all I know is...
zxcvbnm was a bit more like jack the biscuit (mean)
zxcvbnm- is a bit more like thewarn (nice)
zxcvbnm
Hasn't posted since about 2008 when he (I) lost the password.
Sorry if he (I) was ever mean to you. You're lovely and I can be a prat sometimes.
what the....
man up.
zxcvbnm would *never* put a pussy reply like that
get bent toilet dog
Still got it...
aw
nice mean not mean mean :)
remember when you switched to zxcvbnm2 and lost the password for that as well? :')
this seems like a good time
To remember I_zimbra high point of zxcvbnm's name changes
that was popular that one
whoa you're right
Those two usernames are quite similar. Never made that connection before - just assumed they were two completely unrelated people
no you bumface
i get neoclarityn form the doctor
Is got desloratidiner which is essentially just loratadine but for some reason works better on me. I rarely take it though as i always forget. My eyes are a bit red rimmed today.
rimmed
Chance Would Be a Fine Thing
(sorry I'm late).
I SPELLED HAYFEVER HOW????
MODS - Delete this thread/shoot me in the neck.
I'm taking Beconase and Fexofenadine Hydrochloride
I've gone from puffy eyed and sniffy to the point where I couldn't sleep to having absolutely no symptoms whatsoever. Undoubtedly the best thing ever.
Do we have any doctors on here who can rustle me up a prescription of that ^^
Is PO a doctor? I forget.
Go to the docs and say
"I have hay fever, it's shit, give me this and this please"
That's what I do sometimes.
yes but not of medicine
although I'd like to get a white labcoat.
what do you do - rub it on your temples or something?

The saddest day of my life
was when I found out beer contains histamine :(
Sounds like the boxing equivalent of Henmania.
don't be coy
you can use 'ciensanity as your reference for fan phenomena. The crowds have calmed down when I post now
I got hayfever early this year
beginning of April. I guess that means I'm now susceptible to tree pollen as well as the grass and flowery stuff? I also found out last summer that if I don't take any antihistamines (was trying out nasal sprays instead), that I have extreme reaction to insect bites. I might just stay in all this summer. I'm essentially allergic to going outside.
Have you tried local providence marmalade?
Sorted me right out.
Providence?
What you talking about, cuntflaps?
Kicked in with a vengeance
This weekend :(
Also put clean sheets on last night just to make Sunday dread, Monday morning a little bit more bearable, got in ready to go mmm but instead started sneezing. Obviously got covered in pollen while drying on the line (my own fault I've been warned about that)
Off to get Lucien's nasal spray
I am fucking dying today
Don't normally get it badly, but fuck me today's been a pain already.
Avamys has worked wonders for me
Got it from the GP last year (prescription-only steroid you inhale through your nose) and it has reclaimed the April-July period for me. Eyes still get a bit itchy, but I cal live with that using eye drops. Do it, see the doctor!
Imagine being so pathetic that NATURE makes you ill
ooooh Ive got a snotty scold and my eyes are running and this is just torture OH ILL JUST TAKE A PILL AND IM FINE AGAIN you make me sick
It is depressing that I'm allergic to the world
Too much time spent inside becoming a translucent skinned sun dodger
Any excuse to take pills though AM I RIGHT?
constitution:2
we're doing D&D jokes on here now, are we?
This place is too nerdy for me. Ahm oot.
:D
I hope the cheerleaders will have me back when I've defeated all the nerds at Dungeons & Dragons. ( I assume someone wins the game yeah?)
whoever wins, we all lose
it seems fun but I wish it could just be the story
they should get rid of 1d4 9dex 20HP stuff

HAY FEVER HAY HAY FEVER
was pretty bad this weekend but I just manned up and took it
(and complained a lot and got really grumpy with the family.)
not a thing
Really exploded in the past week or so.
Went for a job yesterday, had a sneezing attack when I slowed down, no tissues, was a disgusting mess. Eurgh.
THE LORATADINE. ZEY DO NOTHING.
Lucien's nasal spary works quite well
I have to use it 3 times a day though and it costs £9 for the tiniest bottle ever. It does feel bloody amazing when you spray it up your nose though
yeah but lucien
I used to get it quite badly and then I stopped being so immature and it's fine
Nae bother today
Panic over, guys.
