I’m guessing it’s from dry air god me but even with humidifier I always have to blow my nose a bunch of times in the morning. Sometimes my lungs feel tight for a while after waking up. This happen to anybody else? Why does it happen for you?

Do you take an antihistamine? I live on Zyrtec and would be miserable if I didn’t take it daily

I do a spray sometimes but I don’t wanna take meds every day.

I’d prefer to fix the problem instead of blocking my body’s response to the stimuli.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

If your body produces too much histamine in response to cotton or something else super common like dust mites, you aren’t going to remove all of that stuff from your environment

maybe i gotta to back to my allergist for something more permanent.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

There’s no permanent solution? If you mean the shots, you still need to get those regularly…. And that’s just medication anyway lol

[-] venusaur@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

But after time your allergies go away. Pills you take indefinitely.

[-] jeffw@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

No? They don’t go away. The shots are literally just injected meds

[-] venusaur@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

They’re not. Do a quick google search.
