hay fever
anyone else get it?? tis driving me crazy have been inside most of today to try and 'control' it. nothing i take helps and im constantly sneezing... makes my throat and nose sore and to make it worse i live in the country with fields out th back of my house :x

makes me dread/ hate summer....... i envey those who dont get it sooooooooo much :(

It started affecting me about 6 years ago mmaybe a bit longer and it does my nut. I take medication which works to a certain extent the nose spray stops the runny nose but it just blocks up with solid stuff then, my skin never gets itchy because i'm on tablets which also help my eyes but my eyes are ususally the worst thing, they can be fine all day and then suddenly just get bad, and i try not to icth them. I usually have the will power, the thing is though it just feels as though you have an eyelash in your eye or something but theres nothing there and your eye just gets worse, so the best remidy, Optrex and then close your eye for 20 - 30 mins or longer, or just go to sleep, i use it as an excuse for mid day naps. The worst thing is if my eye gets bad my parents avoid me because i am the most moody person in the world. I snapped the ohter night at my dad, so badly i went mad over him saying what time is your exam in the morning. HAY FEVER + SIM = ANGRY, HULK SIM, GRRRRRRRR

I get hay fever really badly. Have had to sit my exams in a room by myself as where we do them is right by our 6th form garden and with the windows open soon sneezing itchy eyes etc. Have got eye drops from the doctor which have really helped and also take the syrup stuff. Was also told to hve a teaspoon of local honey to help - apparently it helps as it builds up ur immume against local pollens or something like that!!!!!!!
TIGERS rock especially Ollie, CRANE, Moody, Crofty, and Matt C
I get sneezy later in the summer - think it's oilseed **** (that's me, don't want to annoy the censor). But at the moment, the heat rash is driving me up the wall! my hands and feet look like a cartoon of someone who has measles! I can't wear my rings and wake up in the night scratching. Aargh!

I don't normally get it, last time I did was 2 years ago during my GCSEs but I've got it quite bad this summer.
Which is fun because I go to an agricultural college and work at a stables! Attempting to do x-country yesterday with stinging eyes was interesting considering my vision isn't very good anyway!

it's totally destroying me!! woke up at 4 this morning to have my 4th nosebleed session of the week, all over the bed covers, so not had much sleep, as i'm writing this feeling very tired and ratty there are kids in a garden somewhere close by with two of the most screamingist little brat girls i have ever heard, splitting my ears in two. my right eye is stinging badly and i have absolutely no energy to do anything whatsoever :roll:

My hayfevers been really bad today, my nose just wont stop running and my eyes are really itchy. Dreading tomorrow, feeling uncomfortable in a stuffy exam room. Local honey is supposed to be good for you like you said Ollie Smith Rules, my dads been taking it most of this year which has made him more immune to the pollen and hasn't been feeling as bad.

I've had it really bad today and the one good thing about getting older is it's supposed to go away. Humph. Itchy eyes and heat rash are really horrible. I find the Citirizine/Zirtek pills work well but you need to take them in early May before the symptoms to make them work - and every year I think "I won't bother, I must be growing out of it this year" Optimistic!
Good luck in the rest of your exams, fellow snifflers. I remember that so well. My sister had a nose bleed all over maths exam and they had to give her a new paper!
