Think `I`ve mentioned it before on the annual WHO Hay Fever thread.....but I`ll say it again.
KENALOG is the answer.
Generic name Triamcinolone Acetonide.
It`s a depot injection of a steroid....reduces the immune response.....lasts approx. 6 - 8 weeks so covers the worst of the season.
Its probably what Buster was referring to below.
Now the difficult bit......GPs don`t like giving it.
It was recommended to me by my uncle (retired GP)....but my GP on London shook her head when I asked for it.
Moved to Devon years ago.....same response.
They say they don`t like giving it because reducing the immune response leaves you more vulnerable to other infections.....and that antihistamines work just as well.
But as anybody with really bad symptoms knows....they just don`t.
I had it terribly for years....and all the usual tablets just left me feeling groggy and `thick` headed......and some days did nothing.
Some private GPs/walk-ins may give it....get googling.
I eventually tracked it down on a slightly dodgy Canadian website.....the ampoule turns up from Mauritius.....and I inject myself....but them being a paramedic I have the means to do so!
But I have to say,......the stuff is life-changing....I have barely a sniffle or a sneeze all summer now.
Wish I could import and sell the stuff!

Buy some local honey a few months prior to Pollen Time and use it right through the season, this will help you.

Dairy intake can have a big influence on you allergies. From asthma to hayfever, they are all heavily affected by Dairy. Knock the milk and butter on the head for a week and you should see an improvement...

Loratadine works for me, have to take two or three at a time though. Couple it with phenylanine (sudafed) which clears the swelling in the nose and allows you to breath.
Anyone who takes brand name medication is a MUG

Asda 'Hayfever & Allergy Relief' tablets (the ones with Cetirizine, not Loratidine) work like magic for me.
£1 for 14 tablets.
Tesco do a pack with the same ingredient (10mg Cetirizine) - same price.

Hate it - would really be nice to have just a little time with a nose that isn't blocked or running. I've resisted to rub my eyes so far... can't hold out for much longer, though.

You can get an injection, can't remember what it's called though. Have it in April, you're sorted for the summer. Costs about £150.

Best tablets I've had
Try the Sudafed blocked nose spray for the blocked nose. Works for me.
Hayfever is a cunt.

Mine eased up mid thirties, for some reason back with a vengeance this year. At 41 I thought I got shot of it.
Always been mid may to end June.
Tried the lot except jabs.
