i'll try and spell this right, its an injection you can get once a year like the flu jab, i get it every year and its a god send, your doctor will have the details..
yea its called kenalog a cortisone(steroidal) injection that im not happy about taking for other reasons.
have you tried anything else that gave you relief?
cheers
i tried the tablets, but they are annoying.....the injection is your only man, no side effects or anything like that......

Well mine got much worse when I moved back here... Never had hayfever, or never noticed it when I was living in Manchester. Luckily Clarityn does the trick for me...Quote:

Forget the injections or tablets. Best bet are eye drops. I started using couple of years ago & was amazed with difference...
yeah eye drops are great for a runny nose :rolleyes:
Its all related. Eye drops will help nose too.Quote:

I used to suffer really badly but a combo of Neo-Clarityn and Flexinase Nasal spray every morning has all but cured me, except the days when I forget...Quote:

I don't suffer too badly from it but I've found Zirtek to be good.
An old Victorian patent medicine by the name of Rhyno's Hay Fever and Catarrh remedy, once available in all good chemists but now only from selective outlets. I believe it goes by the name of cocaine these days. :eek:

Clarityn does Jack **** for me, Zirtek Just makes the sneezing and itching stop but blocks my nose like cement.
Ive been told there is a type of Honey from New Zealand thats available that will cure it outright with a spoonfull a day, cant get the name of it, anyone hear of it ??
Weird thing about hay fever is you supposed to grow out of it.
Nose been killing me this week.
Any natural remedy would be welcome for sure.
Only notice my nose blocking in the morning, clears up as the day goes on. Any natural remedy would be welcome...
On a related but different subject....when I wake up some mornings, my eyes are stuck closed as I seem to have too much sleep in my eyes. First time it fairly frightened the bejaysus out of me. I thought I was gone blind.
Any ideas on this or similar experiences, or am I really the freak they say I am.... :eek:
I probably last got that when i was 8 ;)Quote:
