Anyone else down for the count? Felt like hell for the last two weeks and finally broke down and went to the urgent care clinic today after my voice went out for the steroids and antibiotics along with another fillup of Allegra-D.

No booze for two weeks

I usually get bad fall allergies. Hasn't bothered me so far this year.

I am battling it with bourbon

Eyes have been watering for a week, coughing up a lung every morning, sneezing every breath.

Zyrtec in the morning and Claratin at night. Still suffering. When my son's youth football season is over I will get relief through staying inside.

My nose has been a green fountain for the last two weeks - I thought the black whopper was supposed to turn my poop green?

Constant running nose, sneezing, eyes watering and itching like crazy, coughing up gobs of phlegm every minute...

I usually get a dose of this stuff, so I figured it'd pass after a couple of days - but this year I'm shooting green ping pong balls out of my nose.

Been waking up with a plugged up left nostril. Also have been sneezing a bunch. I've been taking Zyrtec, but it only works so much. Frick allergies.

Went during the LSU game and there was no wait and insurance paid for all of it. So yeah, that makes me a pussy.

Just got a Rx from my ENT yesterday. Antibiotic and steroid pills as well.

It makes a difference starting a Rx and letting the congestion drain on Saturday. ..compared to waiting until the work week.

I rarely have allergy issues, but this fall has been awful

When Cassia trees start to bloom, I know I am in for it.

For reference, Cassia tree

I don't think it is the trees, they aren't that prevelant. Just something that goes with them.

I've battled with my sinuses ever since I was a child. Getting a neti pot was the best investment I ever made, anytime I feel an infection coming on I can usually nip it in the bud by using the neti pot a few times a day along with psuedofed or mucinex. I was taking singlulair daily but started having bad side effects. It made me strangely jittery and nervous which the doc said was strange since it doesn't have the chemical in it that typically has that side effect or something.... so switched to claritin. No issues since.

I used to only suffer allergies in Sept in northern U.S. I now suffer a lot more than just Sept. for a few days. I need to move. I hear the Fla. panhandle is easier on allergies...tradewinds.

This is the only thing that works for me...

Neti pots spill. This is much better
