Allergies affect me 24/7. I'm deathly allergic to cashews and quite a bit to cats, but it's the year-round pollen allergies that get to me. I've been tested and there's nothing in this area (San Antonio, TX) I'm allergic to supposedly, yet every time I open the door I get a sneezing attack that goes into an asthma attack and I itch all over constantly. This area is considered to be one of the worst places in the U.S. for allergies, and even people who "don't have allergies" are miserable in the spring and winter with oak and mountain cedar/juniper pollen.
I've tried just about every allergy medicine there is and only Benadryl helps, but it makes me too exhausted to function even 24 hours later. I've been told allergy shots wouldn't help me and that the only thing I can do is move back to California where I don't have any problems, but it's too expensive to move there :/ I wish I could do that though because the sneezing and asthma attacks keep me too worn out to do anything.
Everyone should buy stock in Puffs since I go through 2 large boxes of the aloe variety tissues a week...
Jam it back in, in the dark.
