Spring sickness



The trees have still no leaves, the leaves are still dry but my pollen allergy is already attacking me. It is not even spring yet. What more during flowering season? I love spring. For me it is the best season of all seasons. I just hate what i feel during spring. It is pretty nice to go outside and make a leisurely walk in the park. Take snaps shots of different kind of flowers, macro shots of bees and butterflies. But how can i enjoy it when my nose doesn't stop sneezing and can't stop my eyes from itching plus banging headache? I guess you can easily imagine how i am feeling. Taking antihistamine tablets doesn't help a lot either. It just make you feel tiring and sleepy. Last year i had an steroid shot which really helped me a lot and very thankful of the effect although i've read and heard it is not good for the body. But as i am searching the internet now , steroid shot is not harmful at all. Hmmmm....which is which? I have an appointment in an allergy center tomorrow. I'll ask the doctor if he can give me another shot. And if he may not, i'll be sucked with antihistamine pills and tons of tissues then....**********sigh

aha, i have an allergic rhinitis too. had an antihistamine-gulping spree before until my eyes irritated so i had to stop it. side effect pala nun yung dry eyes.

haven't experienced pollen irritation yet though, bagay, konti bulaklak dito, =D

ganyan din ako dati, nung nasa pinas pa ako ali-alikabok lang sa bahay ako ina-allergy pero nung pumunta na ako dito lumala ng masyado.
