Question
Hi and thank you in advance. I am 35yF. I had no allergie problems until I moved to Miami Fl in 1995. SInce then it has been miserable. THe only temporary relief I obtained (not full erlief) was about a year taking a shot from an allergist. I also recieved some good but not full relief about 6 years ago on a guifenison and ? mix in tablet form but it is no longer available which is why i havent had it for the 6 years. I haev a stuffy nose, with...oooh...boogers..:)...EVERYDAY...HEADACHE, PAIN CONGESTION IN MY SINUS...EVERYDAY... I cannot stand it. I feel like screaming from frustation. I do not need glasses, i have no food allgeries. Been checked for those. I cannot smell perfume and therefore i dont wear it. Noone at work or home wears it around me. I cannot use ANYTHING that smells good for myself or the home. I have tried every thing over the counter. Daily (which I am concerned about becasue of my kidneys) I take a combo of 3 tylenol sinus (sever I think) green,red & grey tablet; 1 excedrin migrane usually to kick start the pain & stuffy relief. then as the day goes I add two or three more tylenol or psudophed or whatever sinus things laying around and deal with the remaining congestion. I also use in the shower a.m. a natural sinus rinse and a nasal saline spray throught the day. Nothing brings complete relief. As a side note, my ears pop ALL DAY  and night at meals, sitting, etc. PLEASE HELP with suggestions.  It is chronic. Thank you

Dear Stacy,
I am not in the same part of the country that you are, but I do have a couple of "universal" ideas.  Get ahold of some "local honey."  It's like a natural allergy vaccine.  Try a tablespoon in the morning.  Every morning.  My grandchildren have been bothered by allergies and asthma and they don't have symptoms when visiting us in the country with local honey and natural allergy remedies through a company I am associated with.  Although this may sound like a sales pitch, I really want to share the info.  A company called NSP has some wonderful natural products that really do address allergies and sinus conditions, and I also utilize reflexology.  A good reflexologist can do wonders for sinus conditions and allergies.  If you'd like more information about Nature's Sunshine Products, you can visit their website or write me back.
Kind Regards,
Kindred
