Zyrtec, Allegra and Claritin just don't do anything for me. <BR/><BR/>Fixing a sinus infection? I second the saline spray thing (it helps what is clogged up in there get a move out!), plus I gargle warm salt water and drink plain wulong tea (even though I dislike tea). No overkill on fruit juice; it doesn't really help and just throws off your system with all that sugar. <BR/><BR/>Also stop in Target and get an eye pillow (looks kind of like a beanbag) for about $5, then go home and lay down with it laid gently across your eyes and purposefully let all your facial muscles relax. Should quickly reduce your headache.<BR/><BR/>I hope you feel better soon!Larissa Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18054779055268266838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12292273.post-72238279897767994162008-06-09T13:27:00.000-05:002008-06-09T13:27:00.000-05:00oh bless you. hope you feel better by now since i ...oh bless you. hope you feel better by now since i am slow reading this. time and sleep...i have it now! yesssss. i just struggled to get both kids in the bed and im ab to head there myself!Ashley @ pure and lovelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17055470489277299472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12292273.post-19607282061075509932008-06-03T11:38:00.000-05:002008-06-03T11:38:00.000-05:00I have no advice.

Luckily, I have never had too bad of an infection. Hopefully, once I move back to middle TN I won't have this problem anymore.Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03971986684380337809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12292273.post-26558430357094838572008-05-30T17:30:00.000-05:002008-05-30T17:30:00.000-05:00I've heard that some people take their daily 24 ho...I've heard that some people take their daily 24 hour allergy med at night so it is working full steam by daylight. Also, I know you don't want to hear this, but saline nasal spray such as Ocean or the store brand for a couple bucks is the best way I've found to flush out the pollen and keep the sinuses hydrated and not irritated. Just blow your nose and then whoosh it in each nostril and breathe in while you're doing it. I can't feel a thing, I just know it relieves the grip of a sinus headache. <BR/><BR/>Oh and another thing I learned to do is to wash my hair every night in heavy pollen season. That is very inconvenient but it saves smooshing your face around on a pillow with pollen particles that were trapped in your hair.<BR/><BR/>I've never been brave enough to wear the face filter/masks outside, but I see plenty of people who do.<BR/>I admire their attitude!leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13406816696476941486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12292273.post-80781779242306613202008-05-30T15:33:00.000-05:002008-05-30T15:33:00.000-05:00I don't believe in Neti pots either.

Generally don't like pouring things up one crevice to have them run out another. <BR/><BR/>That sounds gross and I guess I shouldn't say "generally" because I don't have any other crevices that I pour things in and have them run out. ENOUGH Julie ENOUGH.

Not to run a marathon, but to lose the rest of this baby weight!!!<BR/><BR/>I have had allergies my whole life! I just take my Zyrtec and Flonase daily. I start taking it early on before allergy season. For me that would be early Fall and early Spring, It seems to help just a little bit. I did the whole allergy shot thing in high school and that is what helped me the most, but who has time for going in for shots all the time?Blessedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881584038565612490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12292273.post-1870684460388403372008-05-30T08:12:00.000-05:002008-05-30T08:12:00.000-05:00I applaud you for going for the big one!
