It’s hitting hard for me at the moment and it’s making me miserable. What do you do to combat the torture of allergies?

Small rant

Pollen allergies are why I really dislike Spring and Summer. I’d rather deal with a Winter cold than Spring/Summer allergies.

    Azelastine and loratidine 2x daily. It at least gets me through the day. Azelastine specifically has been a game changer for me with rhinitis symptoms, but it is quite a bit pricier than fluticasone (at least in the US). Worth it for me because fluticasone did literally nothing for me and had a laundry list of side effects.

    I’m also currently trying a new type of allergy shots called ILIT but I had an anaphylactic reaction to the first dose so I’m not terribly hopeful.

    Apart from medicine, I also bought a HEPA air purifier for my bedroom and that has helped a lot with puffy eyes and fatigue.
