According to Pollen.com I should frickin probably move to Caribou Scrote, Nova Scotia if I want to have a life free of allergy symptoms.
I’ve been damn miserable for the past two weeks. I can’t really do anything more than I’m currently doing to try and keep my damn mast cells under control
I take Clarinex (patent expiring?..hey let’s have a new formulation!!) during the day…I take Benadryl at night…I take Patanol eye drops twice a day in each eye…and you know what? I still want to rip out my fucking eye balls with a grapefruit spoon!! The inside corners of my eyes feel like they’re on fire.
On top of it all… apparently the dreaded Super Giant Ragweed is making a comeback to the midwest!!!
Damn you ragweed…damn your yellowish pollen spores flying through the air straight towards my eyeballs like fratboys to a Tri Delt party!
Any Canadian or Arctic dopers care for some short term company? I’m low maintenance, reasonably hygenic 
and like parlor games.

sniff cough ah-CHOO! Sniff
You have my symfafy. My nothe hath been snuffy or rundin like a fathet for weeks dow.
I got stuck with the job of cleaning out the 'rents house. Love my Mom to tears but jeez! woman! throw some of those dust gatherers away! And I wont even discuss the cat issues…
pass the allegra hi ho hi ho its off to blow my nose I go!
I just went to the doctor for my very first allergy prescription. She gave me two-week samples of Clarinex and Allegra to try. Symptoms are not gone, but eased off delightfully- it’s nice to just be uncomfortable instead of miserable. God bless Bob Claritin and all the employees in his merry little company.
Iowa?
you are allergic to pollen and you live in Iowa?
um, can you say ‘move’?
and: is IA still paying people to move there? (now, that was a huge tip-off to quality of life, was it not?)
My condolences brother Beagledave, from a fellow sufferer. Not only does rag weed get to me I am also allergic to corn pollen, and here I sit in the middle of a God damned corn field that stretches from the valley of the Scioto on the east to way past the middle of Nebraska on the west. I am once more praying for an early frost. Aren’t you glad for air conditioning?
Well, you could come visit beagledave, my stepmom isn’t using her cabin ATM. Can you handle a chainsaw?
