  1. Active hayfever season likely in Victoria after warm, wet winter

    Much of Victoria could experience a more active hayfever season after this year’s warm, wet winter. Seasonal hayfever…

  2. My #hayfever has been quite good this year. I don’t know if it’s due to the weather, or more effective #antihistamines
    It was all going well, until I find myself next to a field of 2 foot high grass, and the farmer arrives to mow it…

  3. So... I ended up spending the hours around midnight all the way until 09:00 in the ER for my allergy.

    I got #antihistamines IV which... is a first.

    It sucked, but the people in the hospital were nice and now I feel very good and my symptoms aren't even 20% of what I experienced the day before. Got a five day prescription to run through here in the next coming days... What an adventure. Glad it's over

  4. I have also discovered, on reading the Patient Info Leaflet, that my Loratadine (anti-histamine) may induce drowsiness (not unexpected), and also *sleeplessness*, rather more unexpected. I'd noticed on the nights when I sub in Cetirizine when I've finished a 15-count card of Loratadine, I've slept better; last night I just didn't take anything, and slept beautifully, with only one short waking period - AND I didn't need to get up to go to the loo! OK, I'll stick to one Loratadine a day in the mornings, then! The GP had suggested I could/should take 2 a day (or even 3 if needed), as there's an allergic component to my asthma.

  5. @RolloTreadway As a long term #hayfever sufferer I can say that it’s worth trying several #antihistamines and nasal sprays and finding what works best for you.
    For the last few years I’ve been using #Allevia and #Beconase

  6. Full disclosure, I did'nt read the entire report, bc it's a LOT.
    BUT this is very hopeful!!!

    "Based on our studies here and previous reports by others, antihistamine drugs could be utilized both as early prophylactic interventions to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection and as late therapeutic countermeasures to mitigate long-term COVID-19 symptoms."

  7. #covid #LongCovid #antihistamines - interesting findings about antihistamines and covid - go to no. 4 conclusion and recommendation for the less scientific language - ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/

  8. Sent off our #allergy test today.
    It is surprisingly tricky to tear your hairs out by the roots. 😂
    Kept pulling it, going “Ooch!” And seeing nothing between thumb and finger.
    Got mine eventually, then had to pull Sylvie’s for her as she couldn’t grip it tightly enough.
    So, next week, we should find out what allergies we actually have. It’ll be interesting, and take some of the guesswork away.

  9. Bad news: my night last night was crap.

    Good news: I'm no longer on my antihistamines. My allergies haven't resurfaced, but that may explain my shitty night. This is good news because I had stopped taking THC at night due to a bad interaction between THC and my antihistamines.

    So... I'll probably try taking THC again tonight. A very small dab on a mint.
