usually get hayfever symptoms around when wimbledon is on, early this year tho

Not suffering so far.

Used to suffer terrible as a kid.
Had an allergey test done at docs. I think I was allergic to most things that grew outdoors.
Had a three year course of injections, every year between october & march I had to have a jab in alternate arms every week.

Now I think that treatment is no longer used as there were some bad side effects.
Luckily I've never suffered hayfever since.

Pretty bad last week and then a proper killer bout on Saturday night, woke up at 2:30 and couldn't get back to sleep for sneezing, snotting etc. but has calmed down a bit since.

I usually only get it for a couple of weeks then it naffs off but it's dragging on a bit this year - fingers crossed it goes away soon.

I get the loratadine tablets from LLoyds - same price for 30 days as the makes are for 7 days

I used to have those injections but the doctor told me several people died from the side effects. He put me on a nasal spray called Beconase. This has virtually cured my hayfever. Only get it now when the pollen count is really high. Two squirts up the nose twice a day when it starts and within 48 hours no hayfever for at least 3 weeks, great stuff. Can be bought over the counter in any chemist.

Possibly, maybe we should get some for Frosty. Some of us can be bald by choice

Me having long hair then a shaved head as seen some forum members fail to recognise me at shows.

Yep, get it 365 days a year, i'm alergic to grass pollen
I use flixonase spray and tablets and 2 differant inhailers during the summer, also can't eat watermelon or tomatos or me throat swells up and i can't breath also alergic to asprin, it makes me head swell up and i get lumps all round me hairline so i look like a klingon
The old eyes swelling up sucks big time especialy when you drive for a living (not any more, cos of it) cos everything goes blurry
