    Default Who else is dyin from the pollen?

    I am having my ass handed to me this year from this pollen!! Every year it gets worse and worse. Sad thing is when I moved to Atlanta in '95 it didnt bother me ( Granted the first time I walked outside and saw everything cated in green dust I was like WTF is this shit?? lol ) But about 4 years ago it started hitting me and this week has been by far the worst I have ever felt from it.

    Luckily I only suffer the 3 or so weeks that the green shit falls from the heavens...LOL

    My eyes are blood shot red from me rubbing them, They have watered non stop, I cant breath, sneezing, etc, etc. I have taken every damn thing I can get ahold of for this and nothing helps, Even prescription Clarinex doesnt help in the least bit.

    Yeah man, Hell are drive way has patches of it, I told Leisa I should go rub my face in it and see what it does to me...LOL

    I think we only have a few more weeks of this green shit though, As heavy as it was today I am safe to assume we are in the peak of it now, so it can only get better after that...LOL

    The stuff that drives your allergies crazy isn't the pollen that covers everything. That stuff is too big to actually get inside your nose and trigger your allergic reaction. It's the microscopic pollen that you can't see which is the bad news. Although it is irritating to your throat and eyes.

    I'm dying here, too. No fun.

    Val for President.
