I rode my eScooter to the allergist today, and I got there super snotty/puffy eyed/raspy. Did the allergy test and sure enough, I'm very allergic to basically ever grass, tree, and weed in the known world.

Allergist straight up said, "Well we knew when you got here" and I was like... guess I'm in the right place! Learned some allergies I wasn't aware of, and got some super important advice about how to manage them. So overall a great visit.

Have you ever had a moment of seeing someone at your job and being like "Oh yeah, you're in the right place."

Sad fistbump, my immune system also hates all the plants. A HEPA air purifier in the bedroom and living room have made a huge difference for me, to the point I'm considering coming off one of my allergy meds. The allergist's office probably already mentioned air purifiers as an option, but if you were wondering if it's worth dropping the money on it, I've definitely found it to be.

+1 for this. My allergies aren’t as bad as you have described but I moved to an area with wildfires (smoke!) and bought a couple of HEPA filters that also have activated charcoal and I absolutely can tell a big difference with them in allergy season.
