is there a cure for hayfever?

i have tried a few allergy pills, but every day i sneeze, sniff, and cough all day long. i am miserable, i am suffering, i need a remedy.

right now i can hear things better in my left ear than my right ear.. i think this is something caused by my hayfever. it is driving me insane!

Hayfever is not curable, but you can get long-lasting allergy shots to relieve the symptoms.

at this point, i really can't afford any shots. are they worthwhile?

I believe Claritin is over-the-counter now.

you might have some plants or flowers you're allergic too in your house. also could be a tree you're allergic to outside.

what kind of pills have you tried? if you lived here i'd give you some of my allegra.

Aegis - I don't think so. It works right away, and it is non-sedating. It's great stuff if you don't mind taking it every day.

damnit i just had a freaking bloody nose! so attractive infront of my lady co workers! not!

once i get a bloody nose, i get them really easy.

anyhow, i have tried claritin, clarinex, and now i am trying this type of pill that i have never heard of that my mom bought.

summer is my most miserable time of the year because of hayfever. ever since i was a little boy it has been ruining my god damn summers. i lived in the east now i live in the midwest gigabitch. there is not escaping it.

Hi,

... I will give you a different perspective on allergies...

... in many yoga books [and in the Master Hilarion books] we find that animal allergies are ALWAYS the karmic result of being cruel to animals... for example if you "kicked dogs" in past lives, then you will find that 'dog hairs' make you sneeze in this life... and if you "kicked cats" in past lives, then you will find that 'cat hairs' will make you sneeze in this life...

.... ok, so it would naturally follow that 'hay fever' would be the karmic result of trampling on fields in past lives... or setting fire to fields in acts of vadalism in past lives... or even denying wheat food-stuffs to to others in past lives...

...meaning that the 'remedy' would be something like making a donation to an african crop growing project... or donating some bread or cerial to a hostel for the homeless...or perhaps going to work as a volunteer on a famning a project...

.. either way round you will know when the karma is corrected, as you will no longer have the 'hay' allergy any more... meaning that until that happens, there is "more to do" for you!

Some food for thought - John
